It is actually not 50% but generally a bit more at approximately 53% of males are conceived as the male sperm is faster than the female sperm. The mortality for males are higher however either in utero or before birth so the male to female ratio at birth is 50%

What is the probability of a woman giving birth to 6 daughters in a row?

Theoretically we might imagine that the probability that a woman would give birth to a daughter would be 1/2. With this assumption then the probability would be 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = (1/2)6 = 1/26 = 1/64However, there are other considerations:The ratio of boys to girls at birth varies by country. (The most boys to girls occurs in-wait for it-Liechtenstein.) This means that the probability of giving birth to six girls in a row in some country would be less, in others maybe more.If a women gave birth to three girls in a row then you would have some grounds for suspecting that there could be something about her and her partner that favours the conceptions of girls. If this were true then the probability of there being six girls in a row would be much higher.
