The proximity of the male private parts with the cell phone, stored in the pockets (with the keys and the wallet), makes the spermatozoa trip. A study published in the journal Environment International compiles all the publications on the subject. The finding is clear: the waves emitted by cell phones, even in the pocket, affect the quality of sperm.
Researchers at the University of Exeter in the UK arrived at this result by analyzing 10 sperm quality studies, based on 1492 semen samples.
Electromagnetic waves are said to impoverish sperm on two levels: they reduce sperm mobility by 8% and they affect their viability (lifespan) by 9%.
Study author Dr Fiona Mathews reassures men who often put their cellphones in their trouser pockets: “There is no need to panic. But men with potential infertility problems should do everything possible. also consider this aggravating risk factor “.
In summary, to keep their sperm healthy, keep your cell phone and your laptop connected via Wifi away from your manhood. Alternatively, if you believe in high tech clothing, you can always test the anti-electromagnetic wave underwear !
