Is it accurate to determine the gender via ultrasound when in breech position?

Patient's question:

I had an ultrasound at 32 weeks of pregnancy. The doctor initially said she couldn't see anything because I was lying on my back. Later, after looking for a long time, she said it looked like a girl and couldn't see the head that should be present in a boy. Is it accurate to determine the gender via ultrasound in breech positions?

Doctor's answer:

Now the check shows it is breech position, and the baby's gender can also be identified through ultrasound. As long as the baby's genital organs are not obscured during the examination, the gender of the fetus can be clearly diagnosed, and the accuracy rate is also very high. It is recommended to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits during pregnancy, to prevent cold and keep warm, to avoid exposure to toxic environments, and to avoid exposure to radiation. Rest more during the day and do well in prenatal examinations.
