Foods Men Should Eat More of to Have a Son
According to an article in Japan's "Science" magazine: In the period before conception, the husband can control the gender of their child by adjusting his diet or appropriately increasing or decreasing exercise and energy consumption.
Research results show: If the husband's semen is weakly alkaline, the wife will have more boys; if it is weakly acidic, she will have more girls; if it is neutral, the chances of having a boy or girl are equal. The American Aerospace Medical Research Center once conducted a survey on the gender of the children of 148 professional athletes, 64 fighter pilots, and 25 astronauts. The result showed that 96% of their children were girls, mainly due to their high energy consumption, which caused the accumulation of acidic metabolic products such as lactic acid and copper acid in muscles and body fluids. This made Y sperm, which determines male offspring, lose vitality more quickly than X sperm, resulting in fewer male children.
The researchers pointed out that for couples who want a boy, the husband should maintain a weakly alkaline body fluid environment. The method is to stop intense exercise and reduce energy consumption. Additionally, daily intake of alkaline foods such as fresh vegetables and fruits should be increased. For those who want a girl, the body fluid should be slightly acidic. The method is to increase physical activity and frequently perform indoor manual labor, while eating more acidic foods like rice, fish, meat, poultry, and eggs.
For normal men and women, under natural circumstances, the chances of having a boy or a girl are each 50%. Some couples prefer boys, while others prefer girls. I have a classmate who particularly likes girls. She is preparing to have a child but doesn't want a boy. Recently, she has been very actively consulting me on how to have a girl. In fact, there are seven techniques that can help you determine your child's gender!
Technique 1: Diet Control Adjustment Method
This theory suggests that by changing the acidity or alkalinity of food, one can adjust the body's pH level to achieve the goal of having a boy or a girl.
A woman's vagina is usually acidic. If alkaline substances are secreted during orgasm, it is more suitable for Y sperm survival, which is important for those who want a boy. Those who want a girl should maintain an acidic internal environment. Diet control involves categorizing food into acidic, alkaline, and neutral types. Males consuming more acidic foods and females eating more alkaline foods can help with having a boy. Conversely, males eating more alkaline foods and females eating more acidic foods are beneficial for having a girl.
However, the claim that dietary changes can alter constitution has not been verified. Relying on this method to decide the gender of the baby may still depend on luck. As long as one does not have a biased diet and consumes various foods evenly, trying this method is also fine.
Acidic Foods
Milk, eggs, fish, meats (such as beef, chicken, pork, fish)
Sour fruits (such as tomatoes, oranges, strawberries, grapes, pineapples, apples)
Those who hope for a boy: Males should primarily consume acidic foods
Those who hope for a girl: Females should primarily consume acidic foods
Alkaline Foods
Beans (such as green beans, soybeans, red beans, tofu)
Green vegetables, lettuce, potatoes, bamboo shoots, onions, mushrooms, cauliflower, seaweed
Fruits (bananas, watermelons, loquats)
Wheat flour products, milk, tea
Those who hope for a boy: Females should primarily consume alkaline foods
Those who hope for a girl: Males should primarily consume alkaline foods
Technique 2: Pay Attention to Details During Intercourse
Secrets for Having a Boy
Timing of intercourse -- Abstinence (for about 5 days) until the day before ovulation allows for sexual intercourse. Normal sexual life can continue beforehand because the cervical mucus becomes alkaline during ovulation, which is favorable for Y sperm survival.
Vaginal pH adjustment -- Try to have intercourse close to the ovulation period because the female's secretion at this time is alkaline, helping Y sperm activity. Alternatively, start rinsing the vagina with baking soda three days before ovulation to enhance the vaginal alkaline environment.
Position during intercourse -- It is said that making the female reach orgasm increases the likelihood of having a boy, as more alkaline secretions are produced during orgasm, favoring Y sperm activity. Therefore, the male should provide more affectionate caresses beforehand.
Additionally, adopt a deeper penetration position since Y sperm are less active on the inner side of the vagina. If Y sperm ejaculate closer to the cervix, it can: ① Reduce the distance sperm need to travel; ② Deeper penetration makes it easier for the female to reach orgasm. Recommended positions include: standard position, bent position, rear-entry position, and seated-front position.
Technique 3: Bathing Techniques
Rinsing the vagina with a solution of 2% or 2.5% baking soda before intercourse can increase the chance of having a boy. Rinsing the vagina with 30% or 50% vinegar or 1% sodium lactate before intercourse can increase the chance of having a girl.
Technique 4: Timing of Intercourse
German researchers analyzed birth records from 1946 to 1995 and compared them with local temperature changes. They found that April to June had the highest number of male births, while October had the fewest male births.
Further analysis showed that environmental temperatures one month before fertilization, i.e., the temperature conditions one month before sexual intercourse, significantly influenced the gender of the baby. High temperatures tend to produce more boys, while low temperatures tend to produce more girls.
Why temperature affects the gender of the baby is hypothesized by researchers: High temperatures affect the X chromosome in sperm, making it harder for female babies to be born; Low temperatures affect the Y chromosome in sperm, making it harder for male babies to be born.
Technique 5: Lunar Calendar Method: Age and Month of Conception
It is said that this method was invented by a Chinese scientist, who drew up a chart and buried it in a 700-year-old imperial tomb. The authenticity of the chart's origin is unknown, but its design is clear. According to the lunar calendar, it clearly lists whether a male or female baby will be conceived for women aged 18 to 45 in different months. Women can plan their conception according to the chart to control the gender of their child.
Technique 6: Choosing Conception Time Based on Magnetic Field Strength
Related survey results indicate that when the magnetic field strength decreases, the birth rate of boys is higher than that of girls. This means that conception during periods of reduced geomagnetic activity results in more boys nine months later, with a ratio of 16:10 boys to girls. Conversely, when the curve of geomagnetic fluctuations reaches its peak, the ratio of girls to boys is 15:10.
Scientists say that traditionally, January is the quiet period for the Earth's surrounding magnetic field, but this year's January was very special, with frequent magnetic activity. There have already been three recorded instances of magnetic storms. Choose the timing for having a boy or girl based on geomagnetic intensity.
Technique 7: In Vitro Fertilization
This method is even simpler; if you want a boy, you get a boy; if you want a girl, you get a girl.
Following Doctor's Instructions to Fulfill the Wish for a Son
Leung Mei-kei is 34 years old. After having two daughters, she hoped her third child would be a son. She said, "I'm not biased towards boys over girls, but after having two daughters, it naturally feels good to add a boy. That's human nature."
Through introductions from friends and family, she sought advice from an obstetrician.
A year later, she gave birth to her third child, fulfilling her wish for a son.
She declined to have her photo published but openly shared her experience: "I think this method is quite accurate. Friends before and after me have tried it and said it worked. But looking back now, I feel it was quite tough. It was like getting pregnant just to get pregnant. Beforehand, I had to do a lot of preparation work, measure my temperature, calculate my ovulation period, and follow many steps before intercourse."
"I was determined to have a son, so I strictly followed the method without being careless. Sometimes, even when my husband wanted intimacy, I refused because the timing wasn't right. In short, it required my husband's understanding and cooperation."
Leung Mei-kei said, "Throughout the process, the psychological pressure was quite significant. It felt like a burden, and the joy of intimacy was lost."
Who could blame her for wanting a son? She endured the hardship, and now seeing her healthy and lively son mischievously playing around, Leung Mei-kei feels indescribably happy.
Secrets to Having a Son
How to Have a Boy
1. Before planning to conceive, correctly measure your basal body temperature. The day it suddenly drops is the day of ovulation. If unsure, you can go to the hospital to check the cervical mucus for assistance in judgment;
2. Have intercourse on the day of ovulation or the next day, as the vaginal secretions are alkaline at this time, which is beneficial for the survival of Y sperm;
3. Take natural calcium supplements (4 tablets) daily until the doctor confirms that you are pregnant;
4. Use condoms to prevent pregnancy for two months before conception, and avoid other methods of contraception;
5. Adopt a sexual position that is conducive to having a boy;
6. The semen should be as concentrated as possible, so abstinence is recommended before planning to conceive.
1. Ovulation Day and Vaginal Environment are Usually Strongly Acidic, but Near Ovulation, it Becomes Alkaline. If you want a son, sexual intercourse should be avoided from the first day of menstruation to the day of ovulation because Y sperm thrive in an alkaline environment, thus increasing their survival possibility. Additionally, during intercourse,
2. Sexual Intercourse - If you want a son, it is better to have sex at dawn when the alkaline environment favors the strong activity of Y sperm. On the contrary, having sex at night might increase the chances of having a daughter.
3. Vaginal Washing:
If you want a son, create an alkaline environment within the vagina; if you want a daughter, create an acidic environment.
4. Female Orgasm:
During a female orgasm, the secretions are alkaline, which Y sperm prefer. So, if you want a son, ensure the female experiences a full orgasm to increase alkaline secretions. Conversely, to have a daughter, ejaculation should occur before the female orgasm to create an acidic environment that Y sperm dislike.
5. Sexual Position:
The vagina is inherently acidic, but near the cervix, it becomes more alkaline. This means shallow penetration near the vaginal opening favors X sperm survival, whereas deep penetration near the cervix enhances Y sperm survival. Positions for shallow penetration include the missionary position with legs straight. Positions for deep penetration include raising the legs in the missionary position.
6. Male Body Temperature Regulation:
To have a daughter, wear tight clothing; to have a son, wear loose clothing. Increased humidity around the testicles or inside the body reduces sperm count, increasing the likelihood of having a daughter. On the other hand, Y sperm are weaker and less enduring in hot environments. Thus, if there is more heat, the likelihood of having a son increases. To have a son, take warm baths regularly; to have a daughter, bathe less frequently.
7. Dietary Regulation:
Changing body fluids through diet is an auxiliary method but is still more effective than doing nothing. Couples who want a son should regulate their diets with males focusing on acidic foods and females on alkaline foods. If the female's body fluids become alkaline and the male's acidic, the number and activity of Y sperm decrease, increasing the likelihood of having a daughter. However, prolonged dietary regulation can lead to nutritional imbalance. It is best to regulate the diet from ten days before ovulation until the second day after ovulation.
Controlling the Gender of the Fetus
Predicting the gender of the fetus is aimed at preventing genetic diseases, especially X-linked recessive inherited diseases, and should not be abused to artificially create gender imbalances.
Through long-term research and experiments, people have discovered that the key to determining gender lies in the male's X-type sperm and Y-type sperm, which have different characteristics: X-type sperm have weaker motility, move slowly, but survive longer, while Y-type sperm have stronger motility, move faster, but survive shorter than X-type sperm. X-type sperm prefer an acidic environment, while Y-type sperm prefer an alkaline environment. Thus, people use these habits to employ some methods to achieve artificial gender control.
1. Dietary Control Method
Through diet, the acidity or alkalinity within the body can be microscopically altered, creating an environment suitable for either X sperm or Y sperm. Women can eat more acidic foods or foods rich in calcium and magnesium, such as salt-free dairy products, beef, eggs, milk, peanuts, walnuts, almonds, grains, seafood, etc., which increases the likelihood of having a girl. Eating more alkaline foods or foods rich in potassium and sodium, such as soda crackers, pastries without cream, various juices, slightly salty foods, root crops like sweet potatoes and potatoes, fruits, chestnuts, etc., increases the likelihood of having a boy. Dietary control should begin one month before planning to conceive.
2. Mastering the Ovulation Period
Having intercourse close to the female's ovulation period makes it easier to have a boy. Having intercourse after the ovulation period makes it easier to have a girl. This utilizes the characteristics of Y sperm being active but having a short lifespan and X sperm moving slowly but surviving longer, artificially creating opportunities for successful sperm and egg combination.
3. Changing the Vaginal Acidity-Alkalinity Level
Before intercourse, using a solution of 2% or 2.5% baking soda to rinse the vagina can increase the chances of having a boy. Using 30% or 50% vinegar or 1% sodium lactate to rinse the vagina before intercourse can increase the chances of having a girl.
4. Sexual Climax Control Method
If the male ejaculates during the female's sexual climax, it is easier to have a boy; if the female reaches orgasm after the male ejaculates or has no obvious sexual pleasure, it is easier to have a girl.
5. Controlling the Frequency of Intercourse
Frequent intercourse over a short period results in fewer sperm per ejaculation, increasing the likelihood of having a girl; conversely, it increases the likelihood of having a boy.
6. Controlling the Depth of Ejaculation
Ejaculating near the vagina increases the likelihood of having a girl; ejaculating near the cervix increases the likelihood of having a boy.
Secrets to Having a Boy
· Before intercourse, the female should wash her lower body with baking soda water (two tablespoons of baking soda dissolved in one liter of water) to increase the vagina's alkalinity.
· The female should ideally reach orgasm. Let the female reach orgasm first or together with the male.
· Adopt a position where the male enters from behind, ensuring deep penetration.
· Abstinence before intercourse is necessary because it produces the maximum amount of sperm, increasing the chances of Y sperm fertilizing the egg.
