Heavy cell phone use effect sperm quality

February 10th, 2008 by eddyra on Health

Men who spend hours each day talking on their cell phones may experience decreased sperm count, as well as a higher percentage of “abnormal” sperm, according to preliminary data from a new study.

Researchers believe the electromagnetic energy emitted from cell phones could theoretically harm body tissue — by damaging DNA.

In a study of 361 men seen at their infertility clinic, lead researcher Dr. Ashok Agarwal at the Cleveland Clinic found an association between the patients’ cell phone use and their sperm quality.

On average, the more hours the men spent on their cell phones each day, the lower their sperm count and the greater their percentage of abnormal sperm.

Luckly, I talk on my cell phone for 10 to 20 minutes a day max… huhuhu..
