I know I already posted this in another thread but thought I should repost in a different thread.

Anyone considered or done sperm spinning with IUI or known anyone who has done it?

Does it help with gender?

Based on the info I've gathered it does but only about 75%.

I haven't had my consult yet so don't know a lot of details yet.

I believe the only reason why spinning seems to do anything is BECAUSE of Clomid for girls and sperm washing and IUI for boys. The studies showed that there was NO difference in ratio between X and Y sperm after the spinning process and researchers could not repeat Ericcson's results in independent studies.

Clomid + one attempt and LE Diet is getting 75% for us. For free.

So this spinning we are talking about the same as Errickson ?

I started using the terms interchangeably
But I think the methods are different.

Can someone please clarify?

The methods are all very very similar. Ericsson is the only one that has been studied very well and thus I personally would look very skeptically on any other method because not only are they all based on the same methodology and general principles(we're really kind of talking about the differences between coke and pepsi here) and thus are subject to the same scrutiny and criticisms, but they also have not even been evaluated independently by other researchers to see if they even work or not. So it's doubly concerning IMO.
