Yes, X-rays can potentially damage eggs, particularly during the early stages of development. The exposure to ionizing radiation can cause DNA damage and mutations, which can lead to developmental abnormalities. However, the level of damage depends on the dose and duration of exposure. In regulated medical settings, the exposure is usually kept within safe limits to minimize any potential harm.
