Fertility experts are warning man that using a mobile for as little as an hour a day is “cooking sperm” and lowering level significantly. The new study shows that having a mobile phone close to the testicles – or within a foot or two of the body – can lower sperm levels so much that conceiving could be difficult.
The study – by highly respected specialists – monitored more than 100 men attending a fertility clinic for a year. Sperm levels of men who kept their phones in their pocket were seriously affected. This is being caused by a heating of the sperm from the phone and by electromagnetic activity. “Even keeping the phone on a bedside table appears to raise lower sperm cell counts.
The quality of sperm among men in Western countries is constantly decreasing and is considered crucial in 40 percent of the cases in which couples have difficulty in conceiving a child.
For younger guys, if you are trying for a baby and it doesn’t happen within a year you might want to think of whether it could be your mobile phone habit that is to blame.”
Men need to think about their well being and try to stop being addicted to their phones.
