Can taking really hot baths decrease a woman's fertility?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: Prolonged exposure to heat may affect a man's fertility but not a woman's. Hot baths are contraindicated during pregnancy because they may be harmful to the fetus. Really hot baths might cause burning of the skin which could make sex uncomfortable but, otherwise, they have NO known effect on female fertility. Interesting question!
