Today we bring to you a feature with startling revelation on www.naturalnews.com which has pointed out how ultrasound is dangerous for the unborn child. Incidentally, we all go for it to get a shot of the foetus so that they can see how their little one looks inside the womb.

As per BBC news recently scientists are planning tests to see if ultrasound can be used as a reversible contraceptive for men. As per the University of North Carolina experts a blast of ultrasound to the testes can safely stop sperm production for six months.

If ultrasound can destroy the sperm functioning for six months, how can it be considered safe for the unborn baby, debate experts? They elaborate, ultrasound causes tissue disruption and damage to foetus and also causes stress and shock for the baby, but still the parents want to show the pictures of the unborn to their family and friends, which they are not aware pose a real danger to the health of the baby.
