    Gender Selection Through IVF in India: Legal and Ethical Considerations

    • Gender Selection via IVF: It’s technically possible through Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) but not commonly practiced.
    • Legal Regulations: Gender selection for non-medical reasons is banned under Indian law.
    • Ethical Issues: It raises concerns about gender discrimination and the societal preference for one gender over another.
    • Medical Considerations: IVF technology prioritizes health and genetic screening over gender selection to avoid ethical complications.
