No, low hCG levels do not definitively mean you are having a boy.
While there are old wives' tales that suggest a correlation between hCG levels and the baby's sex, scientific evidence indicates otherwise. According to existing information, the variance in hCG levels based on the baby's sex is only about 10%.
- A person with higher than average hCG could be carrying a male baby and someone with lower than average levels could still be expecting a female.
This means that the wide range of what is considered "normal" hCG levels makes it unreliable as an indicator of the baby's sex. Other methods, such as ultrasound or genetic testing, are much more accurate in determining the sex of the baby.
