The probability of conceiving a girl is 50x50%, but there are effective ways that will bring you closer to achieving this desire.
If, during fertilization of an egg, germ cells with X and Y chromosomes are found, a boy will be born. Upon receipt of the chromosome set, XX is a girl. Since the carrier of genetic material Y is a man, it depends on him who will soon be born. The sex cell of the partner with which genetic information X or Y comes into contact with the female one, such a child will appear.
It is possible to reliably determine the sex of a child only in the case of in vitro fertilization. Otherwise, the methods presented below only increase the chances of getting pregnant with a girl, but do not provide a 100% guarantee. Let's look at them in more detail.

What do we have to do
In order for a daughter to be born, it is important to correctly calculate the day of ovulation and do all the preparatory measures.
Basic Rules.
- Proven method: before sexual intercourse, it is recommended to wash with vinegar, which ensures an acidic vaginal environment and increases the chances of becoming pregnant with a girl.
- It is advisable to have sex 3 days before ovulation, since the viability of biological material with the X chromosome lasts up to 5 days.
- It is advisable to engage in sexual intercourse at night, do not overdo it with foreplay, and get down to business right away.
These are the basic rules that increase the chances of having a daughter, but do not provide a 100% guarantee. The main thing is not to despair and believe in the end result.[1]
Pregnancy with a girl is 100 percent artificial
If a woman turns to a gynecologist with the request “I want a daughter one hundred percent,” the only guaranteed method of achieving this goal is IVF (in vitro fertilization).
A less reliable, but also trustworthy method is to separate biological material with X chromosomes in a test tube and introduce it into the woman’s vagina through a catheter during the period of ovulation.
100 percent first time with IVF
This is the only way that gives a 100% guarantee that a girl will be born if the parents want it. In a laboratory setting, a doctor fertilizes a mature egg with a sperm that carries the X chromosome, and then sends it into the uterine cavity for further gestation and natural delivery.
Just a couple of days after fertilization, the egg maturing in vitro makes it clear that a girl will be born. So the geneticist is in a hurry to please the parents.
How to give birth to a girl 100 percent using preimplantation genetic diagnosis
In the future, PGD. This is a laboratory study of the genetic abnormalities of the embryo before its transplantation into the uterine cavity. Such diagnostics are carried out when implementing the IVF method; it is important to exclude the transfer of an inferior and defective embryo.
An important advantage: the study is carried out even before pregnancy. In the same way, you can determine in advance and even select the gender of the child. Afterwards, the female embryo is implanted into the uterine cavity.

The influence of nutrition on the gender of the child
Before 3 months of planning, the child should switch to alkaline food. Consuming it in large quantities promotes the survival of female X chromosomes. But for male chromosomes such an environment is dangerous, and they die. Recommended products include:
- Cabbage
- Watermelon.
- Almond.
- Grapefruit.
- Quince.
- Honey.
- Seasonings are spicy.
IMPORTANT! It is recommended to avoid the consumption of salt.
Conception according to Shettles
This method is based on the activity and vitality of sperm with X and Y chromosomes. It is important to know exactly a woman’s menstrual cycle. Scientist Landrum Shettles found that X chromosomes are more active and mobile, maintaining their vital functions from 3 to 5 days. Whereas Y chromosomes are less viable and die faster.
To conceive a girl, it is recommended to have sexual intercourse 2-3 days before ovulation. It turns out that the tenacious X chromosomes will lie low waiting for the follicle to rupture and the release of the egg, and the Y chromosomes will die by the time of ovulation. 9 months after fertilization, the long-awaited girl will be born.[2]
How to conceive a girl: all known ways!
Many couples dream of a child of a certain gender. When all the best positions for conception have already been tried, you need to look for other methods.
If you dream of lace dresses, bows, dolls and blue-eyed happiness with pigtails, a purring “daddy”, your dreams of a daughter may very well come true.
Of course, no method can give a 100% guarantee, but you can try your luck.
The sex of the child depends on the men, or more precisely, on their sperm. As you know, there are two types of sperm: X (responsible for conceiving girls) and Y (respectively, boys). It is from which of them connects with the egg that the child will be of that sex.
X-sperm are inactive , but quite tenacious. Y-sperm are very fast , they “take” the egg in quantity, but they are very vulnerable and die faster than “girl” sperm. When planning a daughter, we will start from the properties of sperm X and Y.
A hundred years ago it was believed that the sex of the child depended on the mother. Therefore, women were forced to perform magical rituals, rules, and adhere to diets, just so that such a desired boy or beautiful daughter would be born. Husbands even left their wives if they could not give birth to a child of the desired gender.
Shettles method for conceiving a girl
One of the simple methods of planning the sex of a baby, which was developed by Dr. Landrum Shettles. We must help the X sperm reach the egg and fertilize it. First you need to study your menstrual cycle , create a schedule based on basal temperature measurements. The most important thing is to determine the moment of ovulation.
You need to have sex every day immediately after your period (ideally, warm up your libido several times a day). Marital duties should be stopped 3 days before ovulation. If you don’t want to stop, take precautions.
The conception of a girl is facilitated by the missionary position or any other position with shallow penetration. This measure is needed to increase the sperm's path to the egg. We remember that Y-sperm are less tenacious and die in the alkaline environment of the vagina. Therefore , it is important that sex does not lead to female orgasm , because this wonderful outcome will help the Y sperm survive.
Table on how to conceive a girl
There is also a table that will help future parents conceive a girl or boy. You need to know the number of the pair in order to know how to use the table. In the horizontal line, find the month of birth of the husband , and in the vertical line - the wife. The number at the intersection of birth months will just mean the number of the couple. For example, if a man was born in March and a woman was born in May, then their number is 9.
In the table below, find your number and look at the graph of the probability of conceiving a child of a certain gender. The more fluctuations in the graph, the greater the likelihood of conceiving a girl or boy. In the case of our example, a couple with the number 9, the likelihood of conceiving a girl is greater in May.
Calendar on how to conceive a girl
In addition to the table, you can use a special calendar. It is very simple to use - you just need to know the mother's age. If the mother, for example, is 27 years old, then, according to the calendar, the ideal months for conceiving girls are: January, March, May, June, November.
How to conceive a girl by blood
Another method that is also popular is conceiving a girl by blood age. Women's blood is renewed every 4 years, and men's - every 3 . Whose blood will be younger at the time of conception, the child will be born of that gender.
For example, my mother is 27 years old, her birthday is in May, and conception is planned for August. It is necessary to divide the age by 4, add to the resulting remainder the number of full months from the last birthday relative to the day of conception. It turns out 27:4 = 6.7. To the remainder 7 we add 5 (the number of months before conception). As a result we get 12.
We do the same manipulations with the age of the future dad . For example, he is 35 years old and his birthday is in March. It turns out 35:3 = 11.6. To the remainder of 6 we add 7 and get 13. Thus, mother’s blood is younger than father’s (12 versus 13), accordingly, the parents will soon have a girl.
Mom Victoria from our forum writes: “My husband really wants a girl.
Mom Ira believes this: “I believe that boys are born if conception occurs on the day of ovulation, and girls are born plus/minus one day. My ovulation has always been protracted and floating. And in general: I was always sure that I would only have girls. I knew it even before all the ultrasounds. In our family, on the female side, girls are born in 95% of cases.”

Paying attention to the timing of sex
The sex of the child is determined at the time of conception. In order for a girl to be born, you need to make love immediately after the end of the cycle . The closer the marriage is to the time of ovulation, the higher the likelihood of conceiving a boy.
Diet for conceiving a girl
You can drink: tea, coffee (carefully), cocoa, chocolate, calcium mineral waters. Not recommended: carbonated sweet drinks, canned juice.
Meat: veal, beef, pork, lamb, but in limited quantities. It is not recommended to eat: corned beef, sausages, smoked meats, ham, roasts, meatballs.

Cereals: rice, semolina. It is not recommended to eat corn.
Vegetables: eggplants, beets, potatoes in limited quantities, asparagus, carrots, cucumbers, champignons, watercress, lettuce, green beans, green peas, peppers, boiled tomatoes, green onions. Not recommended: deep-fried potatoes, spinach, canned and dried vegetables, rhubarb, mushrooms, zucchini, lentils, all types of cabbage, raw tomatoes, white beans.

Miscellaneous: honey, sugar, jam, fresh sour cream, jelly, aromatic herbs, eggs. Not recommended: salt, soda, yeast, ketchup, margarine, olives, gherkins, salted butter.
Ilona Vasilenko, gynecologist, reproductive specialist: “Parents can influence the gender of the child if he is conceived in a genetic laboratory. If the expectant mother and father do not have health problems, and the baby is conceived naturally, then it will not be possible to influence its gender. The only thing that can be said for sure: in Ukraine, as a rule, more boys are born than girls. But no one can tell how lucky you will be.”
Conceiving a girl: folk signs
In order for you to have a daughter, you must:
- before conception, you need to put a mirror and a comb in the marital bed;
- make love under a young apple tree (a controversial sign);
- perform marital duties on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays;
- 5 days before conception, the wife should drink a glass of apple/plum juice at night;
- before conception, the wife should tie a simple thread around the little finger of her right hand;
- have sex on winter evenings when the temperature drops below -10 degrees.
Visualization method
In order for you to have a daughter, you need to really want it . Both parents must imagine everything in great detail. Even the color of the eyes and hair, the face, the smile of the baby. Make this as clear as possible. They say this is how you can “order” a daughter from the Universe.
These are just a few ways to conceive a girl. We hope to find out how well they work from your comments under the article and on our forum.
Good luck! Be sure to share your joy with us! And even if you have a boy, remember: being parents is a great happiness, but you can “work” on a girl a little later.
Conceiving a girl by blood renewal
In a woman, the blood is renewed once every 4 years, in a man – once every 3 years. Whoever has younger blood during the period of fertilization of the egg will have a child of that gender.
To get an answer on how to conceive a girl, it is recommended to carry out a simple calculation. Divide the number of full years of the mother by 4, the number of full years of the father by 3. Next, you need to take the remainder and add the number of months from the parents’ birthday to the moment of conception.
Whoever gets the smaller number will have a child of that gender. This indicates that the blood is fresher than the second sexual partner.
Young blood
The method of calculating young blood is also very popular. According to scientists and researchers, all cells, tissues and fluids of the body are restored cyclically. But in men, renewal occurs in four-year cycles, and in women – every three years. The gender of the parent whose blood is “fresh” during the period of conception of the baby will be passed on to the child.
How to plan the birth of a girl using the young blood method? The mother's blood must be fresh. For calculations, you can add 4 to the year of birth of a man, and 3 of a woman’s birth. For example:
It's 2020 now. The father was born in 1990, the last update will occur in 2020. The mother was born in 1992, the last update will be in 2020. The optimal time for conceiving a child will be the next year after the mother’s blood is renewed, that is, in 2020.
The method of planning using renewed blood still does not have sufficient scientific justification, but it can be used as a complement to the ovulation method.
What products are there
To increase your chances of having a daughter, it is recommended to review your daily diet. It is important to eat foods rich in calcium and magnesium. But portions of salt and sugar should be reduced to a minimum or eliminated altogether.
The diet for the birth of a baby includes the following food ingredients:
- lean meats;
- chicken eggs;
- milk products;
- various cereals, lean porridges;
- nuts, dried fruits, honey, jam;
- fresh fruits and vegetables;
- baking without yeast.
Carefully! Fatty, fried, salty and spicy foods, smoked foods, canned fish, butter, cheese, confectionery and even ice cream are prohibited. It is better to drink green tea and a little coffee, but completely avoid alcoholic drinks and soda.
French diet
A special nutritional system that promotes the conception of a girl was developed in France. It received a simple name - the French diet. Scientists from this country have conducted many studies to prove the connection between the nutrition of partners and the gender of their unborn child.
Sex formation occurs at the moment of conception. It depends on which sperm has reached the target - carrying a female chromosome or a male one. It seems that it is impossible to influence this process. However, by creating favorable conditions for the passage of one type of sperm and unfavorable for others, you can “order” the gender of the unborn baby.
The well-known diet for conceiving a girl is based on the important role of the ratio of microelements and their changes in the process of formation of the sex of the fetus. Daughters are born more often to those partners who love foods rich in calcium and magnesium. Sons appear in those who, in the period before conception, actively consumed sources of potassium and sodium. Guided by this theory, the couple needs to include suitable “gender” foods in their diet and exclude unsuitable ones. This is what the French diet is all about. It allows you to eat a varied and healthy diet, while increasing your chances of having a daughter.
Recommended Products
What should you eat to conceive a girl? The list of foods that are sources of calcium and magnesium is extensive, so there will be plenty to choose from. Some permitted products are presented in the table:
Meat | Vegetables | Fruits and berries | Nuts | Beverages |
beef | carrot | mango | peanut | juices from permitted fruits |
veal | cucumber | apples | hazelnut | canned compotes |
pork | pepper | a pineapple | almond | cocoa |
chicken | asparagus | strawberry | mineral water enriched with calcium | |
eggplant | raspberries | |||
radish | pear | |||
onion | watermelon |
Although the diet of a couple dreaming of a daughter should include meat, it should be consumed in small quantities - no more than 150 grams per day. You can diversify your menu with sea fish and seafood. They are sources of calcium, which promotes the conception of a female child. However, it is better to avoid canned fish at the planning stage, as they generally contain a lot of salt.
Avoiding salt or consuming it in minimal quantities is the main condition for conceiving a girl. Salty foods interfere with calcium absorption, which reduces the chances of fertilization with an X-chromosomal (“female”) sperm.
To conceive a girl, dairy products must be present in the daily menu. Ideally, 750 grams every day. Milk, cottage cheese, sour cream, yogurt will do. You can include baked goods in your diet. However, only those that do not contain yeast and are prepared with minimal addition of salt are suitable. Among cereals, you should give preference to rice and semolina. Mushrooms, eggs, pasta, and lettuce are also allowed. It is believed that women who love sweets have an increased chance of having a daughter, so you shouldn’t give up sugar; you can include honey and jam in your diet.
Nutrition specially developed by French scientists for conceiving a girl is aimed at increasing the calcium-magnesium balance in the body. However, you should not forget about other important microelements, especially when pregnancy has already begun. At the planning stage, both partners must adhere to a special nutrition system.
What to exclude from your diet
You can increase your chances of conceiving a girl if you exclude a certain list of foods from your daily diet. The menu should not include:
- sausages and smoked meats;
- pates;
- dark chocolate;
- bananas;
- dried fruits (dried apricots and dates are especially undesirable);
- oranges;
- cherries;
- salted cheese (including mozzarella, feta cheese);
- fresh tomatoes (allowed in small quantities after heat treatment);
- beets;
- celery;
- cabbage
When planning a girl, you should avoid beets, cabbage, and oranges.
You should avoid corn grits, lentils, and beans. Diet developers recommend reducing potato consumption. Calcium absorption is slowed down by sweet carbonated drinks (you shouldn’t drink them in principle), coffee, strong tea, and salty foods. Sorrel and spinach are also “enemies” of calcium, so you should avoid them at the planning stage.
By eliminating unwanted foods from their diet and focusing on those that contain the right substances, a couple increases their chances of conceiving a girl by 80%. However, it should be understood that the diet only increases the likelihood of having a child of the desired sex, but does not provide one hundred percent guarantees. So far, there is no way to reliably “program” the sex of the unborn baby.
Poses
As mentioned above, Y chromosomes are less active and mobile and die faster without reaching the mature egg. If you choose the right sex position, you can increase the chances of having a daughter.
Recommendations for girls on how best to engage in sexual intercourse with a sexual partner:
- she is on her stomach, he is on top;
- she is on her back, he is on top;
- both on their sides, spoon position.
If the correct sex position is combined with other methods of giving birth to a daughter, the goal will definitely be achieved.
