About

This tool utilizes the Blood Renewal Theory, a heuristic method popular in Eastern Europe and parts of Asia. The premise suggests that human blood cells regenerate in specific cyclic intervals: every 4 years for men and every 3 years for women. According to this theory, the parent with the younger (more recently renewed) blood at the time of conception exerts a stronger genetic influence, determining the sex of the child.

Accuracy depends on precise dates. Significant blood loss events - such as major surgery, blood donation, or childbirth - are believed to reset the cycle manually. Consequently, a person born 30 years ago who had surgery 1 year ago effectively has 1-year-old blood in this model, rather than relying on the birth cycle alone. This calculator visualizes the current cycle status for both parents to determine dominance.

Formulas

The core determination relies on the remainder of the time elapsed since the last cycle reset. Let t be the time in days since the last reset event.

Remdad = tdad mod 1461
Remmom = tmom mod 1095

The gender prediction logic follows:

{
Boy if Remdad < RemmomGirl if Remmom < Remdad

Frequently Asked Questions

Some variations of the theory suggest that if the mother has a negative Rh factor, the result should be inverted (e.g., if the calculator predicts Boy, the result is Girl). This tool provides a standard calculation; users with Rh-negative blood often manually reverse the prediction.
Only major events typically count. Small cuts or regular menstruation do not reset the cycle. Qualifying events include surgeries involving transfusions, donating greater than 400ml of blood, serious trauma, or previous childbirth.
In the rare mathematical instance where both parents have blood of the exact same "age" (down to the day), the theory posits a higher likelihood of twins or an indeterminate result. However, statistically, this is extremely uncommon.
This stems from ancient numerological and observation-based traditions rather than modern hematology. It aligns with historical beliefs that male physiology operates on longer, slower rhythms compared to the faster developmental cycles attributed to females.
