There are many controversial opinions around whether the phone makes men infertile or not. A recent study suggests that the phone can "cook" your sperm. This information is worth rethinking where to put your phone!
Phone makes men infertile?
Looks like the time for the boys to put their phones in their wallets and backpacks. A new study by the Technicon School of Medicine in Haifa, Israel has found that holding a phone in a pocket has a big impact on a man's sperm count. Hence he is less fertile .
Fertility specialists examined 100 of the men who used to go to fertility clinics for a year. They found that men who used their cell phones for at least an hour a day or kept them close to them all day had a significant decrease in their number of concentrates to the point that they could hardly conceive.
47% of men who put their cell phones in their pockets before the whole day are severely affected. Meanwhile, only 11% of men who do not regularly use a phone have a decrease in sperm count.
The researchers think it is because the electromagnetic activity from the phone heats sperm.
Do cell phones affect women's fertility?
A similar study examining the effects of cell phones on women has not been conducted. But researcher Martha Dirnfield said: "Women usually do not carry cell phones in them. Therefore it is possible that cell phones do not affect their fertility".
So men are affected more by the phone in the pocket. And where should you not leave the phone?
7 locations you should never leave the phone
Back pocket of pants
It's easy to forget your phone when you put it in the back pocket. You can even damage, lose or dial someone without knowing it. You also have a harder time moving. Hence you may have pain in your legs or stomach.
Front pocket
With the research above, there is no need to explain why you cannot put your phone in the front pocket of your pants anymore.
Close to the face
When talking on a mobile phone, try to keep your device at least 0.5 to 1.5 cm from your face. If you let the phone touch your face, your skin will get bacteria. At the same time, electromagnetic radiation can also be absorbed into the skin.
Under the pillow
Radiation can cause dizziness or headaches. When the phone lights up, the brain's melatonin production is disrupted.
If you want a good night's sleep , keep your mobile phone away from your pillow.
Near the hip
According to scientists, carrying your cell phone near your thigh or hip can make your hip bones weaker. If you carry the phone for months or years, the risk is even higher.
In a baby stroller
If you already have children, never leave your phone in their stroller. Some researchers suggest that phone waves can cause young children to develop certain behavioral problems, such as ADHD and hyperactivity.
Plug the charger
Charging mobile phone all night does not harm your health. But it reduces the battery life and efficiency of the phone. If you prefer to replace your phone regularly, you can charge it all night. If not, unplug it when charging is complete.
The figure of 47% can partly confirm that the phone rumors make men infertile. Of course there are many other factors that need to be considered more carefully. But you should probably also avoid leaving your phone in locations that are potentially harmful to your health and those of others.
