Looking for advice on PGD and genetic counselling

Not totally sure if this is the best place to post..

I was just wondering if anyone has ever had gender selection for medical reasons ? My partner has an inherited x chromosome disease and whilst he could not pass it on to a boy, he may well to a female. Considering the heartbreak this has caused to us already I would like to avoid the risk of passing the gene on and so would like to try and have a boy. I know this is a controversial issue, I would really have no preference otherwise. I believe we could also try to have embryo diagnosis to choose embryos which don’t have that gene, regardless of gender.

I am just wondering if anyone has any experience of PGD and has any advice about it, costs etc? I’m not finding much online and we are still waiting for our genetic counselling appointment.

Thank you.
