Manu 3.49

पुमान् पुंसो ऽअधिके शुक्रे स्त्री भवत्य्) अधिके स्त्रियाः । समे ऽअपुमान् पुम्स्त्रियौ वा क्षीणे ऽअल्पे च विपर्ययः ॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

A male child is produced by a greater quantity of male seed, a female child by the prevalence of the female; if (both are) equal, a hermaphrodite or a boy and a girl; if (both are) weak or deficient in quantity, a failure of conception (results).
