Why might X-rays be more dangerous to an ovary than a muscle tissue?

The reproductive organs can be more sensitive to x-rays than muscle tissue and have more important negative effects. The x-rays could cause damage to some future follicles or egg cells which might cause some genetic effects on any children conceived shortly after being exposed. You should always make sure to be shielded with some lead as much as possible for the exam being done whenever getting any type of x-ray.
