Can using a laptop on your lap cause testicular cancer?
I use a laptop for around 4 hours a day (breaks every half an hour or so)
I regularly put it on my lap. I have been reading up on this and apparently some sources say that it can give you testicular cancer or other cancers. Please can someone tell me if this true, and the chances of this happening?
Thanks in advance.
It’s possible. I guess that’s why they called laptops, notebooks now.
Well, it caused cancer in all those mice using laptops. (Sorry, just wanted to see you smile!)
Have you ever noticed the ‘up & down’ in the medical research community? Today, tofu causes your toenails to fall off, tomorrow it will be deoderant that causes baldness. So, who knows? I don’t pay much attention until it’s been thoroughly researched & some reliable research team says definitely that this causes that.
In the meantime, get one of those laptop boards with the pillow on one side, & use it religiously. The more distance you put between the source & your body, the less exposure you’ll receive if there is anything to it.
Best yet, put the laptop on your desk!!
