On the long run , i it may causes some harmfull effects due to the emitting EMF from the laptop

Dickson Adom

It results in direct flow of electromagnetic radiations into the body affecting the vital organs negatively. This is very dire for pregnant women as it can disturb the development of the unborn child's body members.

Various forms of cancer like testicle cancer for men have been observed by medical doctors as one of the negative health implications of putting laptops on our laps.

Many health agencies are calling for a change of the name of the device from 'laptop' to prevent or change the wrong thinking of people that putting the device on the laps is not unhealthy.

I think there are some of side effects : the micro waves radiation causes cancer and wi-fi router damages for workers in lap.

Borden Mushonga

Electrons are not good for rapidly dividing tissues such as the testis and ovarian tissues. Also think of diect burn and the laptop sitting position is not ergonomically correct. I sometimes have back aches when i rest the laptop on the side wall of the sofa because it is a crocked sitting position

There are "laptop desks" that can address the issue of heat. Some have metal components that can also protect against radiation.

Posture is a question of that kind of chair you are sitting on (chair, sofa, bed, car seat, etc).

It is always wise to be smart about where and how you use and position your computer, monitors, and peripherals.

Adewale Ajayi

So many take-aways from here...and the name 'laptop' gives the wrong impression you can lap it safely contrary to what the real experience is. Posturally I have been having issues with my back and neck. There is also always this perpetual low warmth from the computer.

Ademolawa Michael Adedipe

It can negatively affect sperm if you are a man. In rare cases, the battery has the potential of exploding if it is very hot.

Vinod Kumar Singh

Great question

Using a laptop is commonplace, widely popular and well-accepted everywhere. However, the wireless signals it receives and emits are potentially harmful. Keeping the laptop in your lap for long periods of time can actually make you risk your reproductive capacity, it can pose risks on male’s sperm count and female’s egg release.

Research in Argentina showed that a laptop nesting close to your testes potentially damages the DNA of sperm cells, which is not always a good thing besides having sweaty balls (also not great)
