Washington, June 12: Excessive laptop use may impact men’s ability to become dads, says a new study

“Laptops are becoming increasingly common among young men wired into to the latest technology,” said Suzanne Kavic, MD, director of the division of reproductive endocrinology at Loyola University Health System (LUHS) and associate professor in the department of obstetrics and gynecology and department of medicine at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine.

“However, the heat generated from laptops can impact sperm production and development making it difficult to conceive down the road,” she added.
