Could Adult Bedroom “Toys” Contribute to Infertility?

In a rather unusual story from Canada, two sisters who are involved in a field that involves adult sex toys are concerned that chemicals that have been banned (at least in Canada) from other items are allowed in adult bedroom products.

Two of the chemicals in question are bisphenol A and phthalates, which some claim are linked to medical concerns including infertility.  Other chemicals (many of which are commonly found in sexual lubricants) have also been deemed potentially dangerous by some scientists.

Though this shouldn’t be cause for extreme measures, couples who use bedroom devices to enhance their romantic activities may wish to consider the materials from which those items are manufactured.
