Do xrays really lower chances of conceiving a baby?

My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for 8 months now. We even had sex every to every other day this entire cycle.

But he has had hundreds (possibly thousands, seriously, went with him to one of them and they took over 50 pictures, and hes even healrhy right now!) of xrays in his lower stomache area and multiple surgeries over the last 9 years.

SO, can xrays really effect our chances??

If he was given a lead protector to place over his testicles during the xrays then all should be fine- this is standard procedure in virtually all hospitals and clinics and shouldn't affect your husband's fertility.
