Sex Selection

Thanks to techniques such as Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) or Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) used during IVF treatments, it has become possible to determine the sex of embryos before their transfer.

Gender selection is a very common option in Cyprus for medical reasons (diseases that can be transmitted via the X or Y chromosomes), balancing the family structure, cultural factors or emotional reasons.
