Mobile Phone radiations can cause infertility in men
TT Correspondent |  |  08 Jan 2013

Even as the department of telecommunications (DoT) has recently implemented new guidelines for emission of electromagnetic radiations by cell towers and mobile phones, a new detailed study by the BioInitiative Working Group 2012 has found that in last five years, health risk due to radiations has increased substantially. It is an extensive report comprising review of over 1800 new scientific studies.

The report has found that mobile users, parents-to-be, young children and pregnant women are more sensitive to the risks from mobile phones.

The report also points out that a number of new studies link radiation to sperm damage. Even a mobile phone in the pocket may harm sperm DNA and result in infertility in men. Laptop computers with WiFi and mobile phone data card can also damage DNA in sperm.

Mobile phones may also alter brain development of the fetus in the case of pregnant women. This has been linked to hyperactivity, learning and behavior problems.
