If you want to have a boy, you can have sex on the day of ovulation when alkaline mucus is secreted in the vagina. At the same time, sexual intercourse is completely prohibited within 2 weeks from the start of menstruation to the scheduled ovulation date. However, many people are unable to completely abstain from sex for 2 weeks. At this time, you can have sexual intercourse on the second day after the end of menstruation and the next two days.

Whether the baby is a boy or a girl has nothing to do with before or after ovulation. Generally speaking, pregnancy can only be achieved by having sex before ovulation. There is almost no chance of pregnancy if you have sex after ovulation. The gender of the pregnancy is determined by the chromosomes in the man's body and has nothing to do with anything else. Both boys and girls are your babies. As long as the fetus develops normally and the baby grows up healthily, it’s fine. Take good care of yourself during pregnancy and have regular pregnancy checks. The country prohibits gender identification, but it can be performed in hospitals when necessary.
