The reported sex ratio at birth is approximately 105/100 males to females. Ovulation-inducing agents, commonly used to treat infertility, may alter this ratio, favoring more female births. This study examines the potential influence of these medications, particularly Follitropin Alpha, and Maternal age on neonatal gender distribution. The study involved 227 pregnant women in active labor, divided into two groups: spontaneous pregnancies (N=102) and induced pregnancies (N=125). The induced group included those treated with ovulation-inducing drugs such as letrozole, clomiphene citrate, or Gonal-F. Male newborns were significantly fewer in the ovulation-induced group compared to the spontaneous pregnancy group (37.6% vs. 52%, p UR - https://japer.in/article/potential-impact-of-follitropin-alpha-gonal-f-and-maternal-age-on-opportunity-to-get-a-male-newbor-k1q0hgcf8p4uek8 ER -
