Patient's question:
Does the use of diapers cause male infants to become infertile in the future?Doctor's answer:
?????? Hello, correctly wearing diapers does not cause future infertility in male infants, and parents can rest assured. Whether using cloth diapers or disposable diapers, it will increase the temperature inside the scrotum. However, so far, there is no evidence that using disposable diapers is related to male infertility. During the diaper-wearing period, sperm formation has not yet occurred in the scrotum of the infant. In other words, during the embryonic and infant stages, the seminiferous tubules in the testes are solid tubes without the occurrence and maturation of sperm. Therefore, wearing diapers will not cause male infants to become infertile in adulthood.
