I would like to know whether keeping laptops on our laps, for a prolong time, can reduce sperm count in men?

That sounds like a good movie pitch

Yes it can. First off, in the short term heat kills sperm. The infrared emissions from the laptop will hurt your current lot of sperm.
Secondly long term damage can be done by the radiowave emissions from your wireless signal if you are using it. The further away the source, the better off you are. Same with cell phones, keep them away. Long term exposure over the couse of years can cause you to become impotent.
do a search on silver underwear and see what you find

Well if the theory holds true that excessive heat reduces sperm count than the short answer is: yes. If your laptop is producing enough heat than it can.
Men who are trying to conceive are encouraged to wear boxers instead of briefs for example because they don't hold the testicals against the body like briefs do.

As long as you dont close them on your balls too many times...lol. Plus unless your balls are on top of your penis, or you're sitting on the underside of the laptop, nothing will happen.
Try using some nan bread as a shield. You can use the heat to warm them up right before you eat lunch.
Being in hottubs supposedly kills the sperm, so it has to be constant heat and a large surface area of transfer, which the balls have alot of.

This may sound funny, but its actually true, they can reduce sperm count because of heat, check out this site http://www.searchenginejournal.com/laptop-usage-can-lead-to-low-sperm-count-and-infertility/1141/

if you visit adults sites then YES but after about 30 minutes your count will be back to normal and you can do it again
