Wanting to have a son, Ms. Kieu Oanh in Ho Chi Minh City used a gel solution injected into the vagina that was advertised to help give birth to the desired child.

Ms. Oanh said that she and her husband planned to have a son in 2019, so they researched many different ways to have a child as they wanted. They happened to see an advertisement for this product, so they bought it and used it.

The seller introduced that the product is hand-carried from Japan, looks like a cylinder containing 4.5ml of gel solution. Ingredients include Propanediol, Lactic acid, Hyaluronic acid Na, phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben... In which, the pink tube adjusts the acidic environment in the vagina to help give birth to a girl, the blue tube adjusts the alkaline environment to create favorable conditions for giving birth to a boy with a success rate of more than 80%. The price of this product is about 3.5 million VND for a box of 7 tubes.

"The salesperson instructed me to inject the gel directly into the vagina 5 to 8 cm deep before intercourse about 10 minutes. Use one tube each time. I have used 5 tubes in two months but still have no results," Ms. Oanh shared.

According to Dr. Nguyen Thi Hong Tham, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, choosing the gender of the fetus using the above product has no scientific basis for research and proven effectiveness. Obstetricians have never advised or performed any methods to help pregnant women choose the gender of the fetus.

"The solution is just a form of functional food, not a medicine at all. The ingredients in this product are nothing special. Even the Methylparaben in the product is a preservative for the solution, if the content is high, it can cause cancer, women should be very careful," Dr. Tham emphasized.

In addition, when the solution is inserted into the vagina, it can change the pH level in the vagina, kill beneficial bacteria and easily cause gynecological infections. Some people may have local allergies such as itching, burning, discharge or systemic allergies causing shock, difficulty breathing, rashes...

Currently, highly accurate methods of gender selection include in vitro fertilization or embryo filtration. Folk methods or the use of intervention products have not yet been scientifically proven to be effective and safe.

Dr. Tham said that the abuse of biomedical techniques to select the sex of the fetus is the cause of the gender imbalance at birth in our country. The Ministry of Health has banned medical facilities and ultrasound clinics from announcing the sex of the fetus in any form to prevent parents from choosing the sex of the fetus.
