    Sperm spinning

    Hi Dr Potter,

    Do you offer any sort of sperm spinning? I read recently that a clinic in NY does it and it may help those of us trying for our xx.

    Can you explain it please.

    Many thanks.

    Sperm spinning does not work. We are happy to do it for free but it yields a gender ratio of 1:1. The only sperm separation technique that is proven to work is MicroSort. The rest are bogus.

    It is pretty dubious. Five patients? He has broken the code that no one has been able to break for 30 years? I will order the full text article to see if he fully describes his technique but smart money says he doesn't. I would be happy to test out his technique or believe it once it has been been replicated at other centers. There is a 2.8% difference in the DNA mass between X and Y bearing sperm. The rest of the sperm cell accounts for more than 99.9% of the overall mass of the sperm cell. To use a centrifuge to separate such a minute difference in mass is like plucking an eye lash with a pipe wrench.

    Interesting... We've seen alot of ladies on here go to him and get really good gender splits. Something like 80/20. Unless of course he is not giving us the whole picture from the lab...
    Can't wait for your update after reading the entire article.
    Thanks Dr P
