The studies are done on rats ingesting high doses of Boric Acid, every day for weeks.
The Wikipedia page also mentions testicular atrophy was noticed in dogs after ingesting 32mg/kg body weight for 90 days.
That's like a human eating about 2g of the stuff every day, on par with your needed daily intake of salt.
That would be a lot of boric acid...
In our case were only concerned with external application and there doesn't seem to be any noted effect there.
