Yes,...: Nylon ; poluester fabric are all made of oil, carrying strong electrostatic potential. Studies on their affecting sperm production in animals (dogs) ; humans showed significant negative impact on sperm production, but the # of study subjects was low. With all available information with no 100% certainty, i would recommend not wearing nylon/polyester fabric clothes if low sperm/infertility is conce.
