Is it accurate to have boys and girls in the Qing palace?
The uterine evacuation algorithm, also known as the ovulation period algorithm, is an ancient method for predicting the gender of the fetus. The basic idea is to calculate the time of conception and the gender of the fetus based on the woman\’s menstrual cycle and age. Although widely circulated among the people, the scientific nature of the Qing Palace algorithm has been questioned. The following will be discussed from multiple aspects to reveal the accuracy of the Qing Palace algorithm.
Unstable menstrual cycle
The premise of the uterine evacuation algorithm is that women\’s menstrual cycles are stable, but in fact, the menstrual cycle will be affected by many factors, such as life stress, eating habits, diseases, etc., leading to irregular cycles. If the conception time is calculated based on unstable menstrual cycles, it is difficult to ensure the accuracy of the calculation. In addition, even if the cycle is stable, there are differences in the time of conception after the sperm and egg are combined, and it is difficult to estimate accurately.
In addition, the uterine evacuation algorithm is actually only suitable for women with natural ovulation cycles. For women who use assisted pregnancy methods such as ovulation induction and artificial insemination, the ovulation period is not natural, and the accuracy of the algorithm is difficult to guarantee.
The factors affecting sex ratio are complex
The basis of the uterine evacuation algorithm is that the sex of the fetus is related to the time of conception, and scientific research shows that the factors that affect the sex ratio of the fetus are very complex, and there is no conclusive evidence that the time of conception is directly related to the probability of male or female fetuses. Studies have shown that the ratio of boys to girls varies in different social, cultural and geographical environments, and may even be affected by factors such as season and climate.
Color Doppler ultrasound is a more reliable choice
Nowadays, with the continuous advancement of advanced medical technology, there is a more advanced and accurate way to predict the gender of the fetus – color ultrasound imaging. Color Doppler ultrasound can observe the actual condition of the fetus in the uterus and accurately determine the gender of the fetus. Color ultrasound can be used in the first, second and third trimesters of pregnancy. More and more pregnant women choose this method to predict the gender of the fetus, and the accuracy is much higher than the uterine curettage algorithm.
Traditional cultural way of thinking
As a traditional cultural heritage, the Qing Palace Algorithm, although its scientific nature is open to question, also reflects people’s curiosity and exploration of unknown things. When faced with problems that cannot be solved by modern medical technology, people often look to other ways to find answers. This way of thinking can also help us look at and solve problems from different angles and expand our thinking.
To sum up, although the Qinggong algorithm is widely popular among the people and can solve the urgent needs of some people, it is undeniable that its scientific nature and accuracy are controversial. Of course, we should respect and carry forward traditional culture, and we should also learn to view these traditional cultures correctly. Ultimately, for pregnant women who want to know the gender of their fetus, it is recommended to use more accurate and reliable methods, such as color ultrasound prediction.
