Many couples want to learn how to conceive a baby girl and may simply have a preference when it comes to the gender of their baby. Treatments such as artificial insemination are generally avoided as they can be extremely expensive. The following are 3 methods to help increase fertility to have a girl.
1. Make love with your partner several days prior to ovulation
One of the most popular methods is the Shettles method which essentially states that if you want a girl, then timing intercourse several days before the woman is ovulating is a must. Male sperm cannot survive in acidic environments so this method quickly eliminates them before the egg is ready to be fertilized. Using an ovulation prediction kit will help to better determine these dates.
2. Increase acidic levels in the reproductive environment
The sperm carrying the female sperm are able to survive in harsh acidic environments whereas the male sperm would not even stand a chance. Knowing this you can monitor the pH levels of the reproductive environment and proceed to increase it. Increasing these levels can be by done using douches prior to making love or consuming foods high magnesium such as green vegetables.
3. Have intercourse with shallow penetration
Depositing the sperm closest to the vaginal entrance is ideal as that area is naturally more acidic while the cervix is alkaline. Missionary and the spooning position often work best as controlling the depth is much easier during intercourse. The reason this is effective is simply because it gives the advantage to the female sperm by lengthening the distance the male sperm has of traveling to reach the egg.
When utilizing these methods, be sure to remain patient and persistent throughout the process to further put the odds in your favor. For the best results, these natural methods should be used in combination with each other instead of relying on only one.
