Yes, gender selection is available in Iran, and it is both legal and commonly practiced. Many couples choose to select the gender of their baby through IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatments.
In Iran, this process is done using advanced techniques such as PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis) or PGS (Preimplantation Genetic Screening), which allow doctors to test embryos before they are implanted in the mother’s womb. These methods help ensure that only embryos of the desired gender are chosen.
Iran is one of the few countries where gender selection for non-medical reasons is allowed, and it is often a reason why couples from all over the world come to Iran for fertility treatments.
The country’s fertility clinics are known for offering high-quality services at more affordable prices compared to many other countries. Additionally, many couples find the process straightforward and safe, with experienced doctors and modern medical technology available.
This service is especially popular among couples who have a strong preference for a particular gender, whether for cultural, personal, or family reasons.
Gender selection is an important part of the fertility treatment options in Iran, and it’s one of the many reasons the country is a top destination for medical tourism in the field of fertility.
The advantage of gender selection in Iran is undeniable. Iran is one of the few countries where PGD is fully legal and this makes it a unique destination for families looking to choose their baby’s gender. In countries like India, with over a billion people, gender selection is not allowed, leading many families to travel to Iran for this service.
Not only is it legal, but the cost of IVF with PGD in Iran is also much more affordable compared to other Asian countries where it is permitted. In fact, the price is only one-third of what you’d pay elsewhere. Despite the lower cost, the techniques used in Iran are highly advanced and accurate. If you want a boy, the success rate is 99%, and for a girl, it’s 97%, provided that the implantation is successful.
In Iran, PGD is performed at the embryo stage, which is considered safer and more effective. While it’s possible to perform PGD at the sperm stage, this method is not practiced in Iran. At TebMedTourism, our expert embryologists ensure that the biopsy on the embryo is done with extreme care, causing minimal harm. This small intervention reduces the success rate of implantation by only 2-3%, ensuring safety for the embryo. Another advantage is the speed—PGD results are ready within just one day, so there’s no long waiting time.
PGD can be done at two different stages in Iran: either on a fresh embryo when it is just 3-4 days old, which is then frozen for later use, or on a frozen embryo one day before implantation. This approach ensures the embryo is only defrosted once, maintaining its viability and increasing the success rate. It’s also worth noting that PGD examines the entire chromosome, not just specific genes. For families concerned about genetic disorders or looking for full chromosomal analysis, options like PGS/NGS or PGT-M are also available in Iran.
At TebMedTourism, we go beyond the medical process by offering psychological support to families considering gender selection, ensuring they are fully prepared for this important decision. The pregnancy success rate with IVF and PGD in Iran is 45–50%, which is higher than regular IVF. This increase is due to the selection of embryos without chromosomal issues, leading to healthier pregnancies.
Although some people try natural methods like special diets or remedies for gender selection, their accuracy is only 10-15%. If you want a guaranteed outcome, IVF with PGD is the only reliable choice. With its affordable prices, advanced technology, experienced specialists, and comprehensive support, Iran offers one of the best options for gender selection. TebMedTourism is here to guide you through every step of this journey.
In Iran, the cost of IVF with gender selection is very affordable compared to other countries. At TebMedTourism, this package is offered for $6,000, covering doctor visits, injections, ultrasounds, tests, medications, the IVF process, gender selection, and the first embryo transfer. Additionally, the cost includes one year of frozen embryo storage.
If the first embryo transfer is not successful, patients can proceed with another transfer. For each additional embryo transfer after the first, the cost is $2,000. This makes Iran a budget-friendly destination for high-quality IVF and gender selection services, with transparent and reasonable pricing.
In Iran, gender selection during IVF is done using advanced techniques that give amazing results. For couples who want a baby boy, the method has a 99% accuracy rate, and for those wanting a baby girl has a 97% accuracy rate—but these high success rates depend on the successful implantation of the embryo.
This makes Iran a top choice for families looking for reliable gender selection as part of their IVF journey. The process is safe, professional, and performed by experienced doctors who focus on the best results.
If you're planning for gender selection, here’s a simple explanation of the process with TebMedTourism.
First, you’ll go through preoperative procedures. For women, this includes general, viral, and hormonal lab tests, as well as an ultrasound to check the uterus and ovaries, done by a radiologist. For men, it involves viral lab tests, like for hepatitis B and C and HIV, and a sperm analysis to check the quality of the sperm.
Next comes the treatment process, which starts with your menstruation cycle. On day 1, you’ll visit the doctor. A fertility specialist will perform an ultrasound in the clinic, determine your treatment plan, and prescribe medications. The dosage of these medications will depend on factors like your age, weight, and height.
On day 2, you will begin taking the prescribed medications and continue until day 8. On day 8, you’ll return to the clinic for another ultrasound to check the size of the ovarian follicles. Based on the results, the doctor may adjust your medication dosage.
By day 11, a final ultrasound will confirm the readiness of your eggs. The doctor will decide the exact date for egg retrieval, which usually happens between day 14 and day 16, depending on how your ovaries respond to the medications. On the egg retrieval day, eggs will be collected from the ovaries, and sperm will be collected from the male partner. This is also when the IVF/ICSI process begins in the lab.
From day 14 to day 17, the embryos will grow in the lab under controlled conditions. On the third day of their growth, the embryos will be tested for chromosomal and genetic conditions. This step is done using PGS (Preimplantation Genetic Screening) to detect chromosomal abnormalities or PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis) for sex selection. The results of this test usually take 1 to 3 days. Based on the results, the healthy embryos will be identified, and you will know how many male and female embryos are available.
On day 18, the best-quality embryos of the desired gender will be selected and transferred to the uterus. After this, the pregnancy confirmation step begins. Around day 32, a pregnancy test will be done to check if the procedure was successful. This test will be repeated two days later to confirm the results.
This step-by-step process is designed to give you the best chance of success with expert care, advanced technology, and a supportive team at TebMedTourism. We’re here to help you make your dream family a reality.
Gender selection is an exciting option for couples planning their families, and TebMedTourism has helped many achieve their dream in Iran. Here, we share the experiences of three families from different countries who successfully underwent gender selection with TebMedTourism.
We always wanted to have a baby girl after having two boys, but the gender selection process in India was not possible due to strict laws. A close family friend told us about Iran and TebMedTourism, mentioning their legal support and high-quality services.
From the first consultation, the team at TebMedTourism explained everything clearly and arranged everything for us, including a skilled female fertility doctor. The process was smooth, and we now have our beautiful baby girl. We’re so grateful for their kindness and professionalism.
"I had been searching for affordable yet high-quality fertility treatments in Europe, but the costs were overwhelming. During my research, I came across a blog post comparing IVF success rates worldwide, and that’s when I learned about Iran and TebMedTourism. I was surprised to see how advanced the medical facilities are and how highly trained the specialists are in Iran.
TebMedTourism made the entire process so easy—they answered all my questions, arranged everything for my trip, and connected me with one of the best clinics in Tehran. The cost was much lower than in Germany, but the quality of care was just as good, if not better. Plus, I appreciated the personalized support and the professionalism of the team.
Thanks to TebMedTourism, my IVF journey was stress-free and successful. I’m so grateful for discovering them!"
After years of dreaming about choosing the gender of our child, I came across TebMedTourism on Instagram while searching for fertility clinics. Their posts and videos caught my attention because they explained the process in such a simple way. I reached out through WhatsApp, and their team was very responsive.
The entire experience was excellent. From the moment we arrived in Iran, everything was organized, and the staff made us feel at home. The doctors were very experienced, and the process went smoothly. Now, we are blessed with a beautiful daughter, and we can’t stop recommending TebMedTourism to others.

So far, we have covered most aspects of gender selection in Iran. In this section, we will address some of the frequently asked questions about this topic.
The cost of Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) in Iran is around $6,000. This cost typically includes the PGD procedure and related services, ensuring high-quality care at a more affordable price compared to many other countries. PGD is performed in advanced fertility clinics with professional specialists to help families choose embryos free of genetic disorders. Iran offers excellent medical care for this treatment, making it a reliable option for couples seeking PGD.
Yes, gender selection in Iran is completely legal for both international and local clients. Advanced infertility treatment centers in Iran offer Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) services with up-to-date equipment and high efficiency.
Gender selection in Iran is achieved through advanced techniques, with two main methods being widely used: molecular analysis and FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization). Molecular analysis, often done through Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) or Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), involves screening embryos created during IVF to analyze their chromosomes. (PGT/PGD are methods to test embryos for genetic conditions or gender before implantation.) A few cells are taken from each embryo and examined to identify the desired sex, along with checking for potential genetic disorders. This method is precise and highly effective.
On the other hand, FISH is a cytogenetic technique that uses fluorescent probes to detect specific sequences on the X and Y chromosomes. (FISH is a technique that uses light signals to identify chromosomes under a microscope.) These probes bind to the chromosomes, and under a specialized microscope, the fluorescence reveals the gender of the embryo. While FISH is an older technique compared to molecular analysis, it remains reliable and effective in determining gender, especially for specific cases requiring quicker results. Both approaches are conducted at the embryonic stage before implantation, ensuring families can select the desired gender with accuracy.
It’s important to note that at TebMedTourism, we utilize molecular analysis for its higher accuracy. This approach not only evaluates X and Y chromosomes for gender determination but also identifies other sex chromosome-related conditions, making it a better choice overall.
