Is it harder to have a boy or girl?
My general response is that it's a 50/50 chance that a woman will have a boy or a girl. But that's not exactly true – there's actually a slight bias toward male births. The ratio of male to female births, called the sex ratio, is about 105 to 100, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

The sex ratio at birth is not equal: in every country births are male-biased. There are biological reasons why there are slightly more boys born every year than girls. The 'natural' sex ratio at birth is around 105 boys per 100 girls (ranging from around 103 to 107 boys).
What is the odds of having a boy or girl?
If we assume that the male produces the same amount of X-chromosome sperm as Y-chromosome sperm, probability dictates that the chance of having a girl would be the same as the chance of having a boy. Most experts concur that the chances of having a girl vs. boy are around 50:50.
