Is Right Side Ovulation Boy or Girl?

Published in Pregnancy & Childbirth 1 min read

There is no scientific evidence to support the idea that ovulation from the right ovary is associated with a higher likelihood of having a boy or a girl.

The sex of a baby is determined by the sperm that fertilizes the egg. Male sperm carries a Y chromosome, while female sperm carries an X chromosome. If the sperm carrying a Y chromosome fertilizes the egg, the baby will be a boy, and if the sperm carrying an X chromosome fertilizes the egg, the baby will be a girl.

The side of ovulation does not affect the type of sperm that fertilizes the egg. Therefore, it is not a reliable indicator of a baby's sex.

Many old wives' tales and myths surround predicting a baby's sex, but none of them are scientifically proven.

The best way to determine the sex of a baby is through ultrasound or prenatal testing.
