The study conducted in military conscription points showed the link between the frequency of use of the phone and the deterioration of semen parameters.
According to the study, men who use the phone more than 20 times a day have a higher risk of low sperm concentration and reduce the total number of sperm. It is important that there is no stable connection between phone use and sperm mobility or morphology.
It is interesting that with the improvement of telephone technologies, the impact on the number of sperm has decreased, especially with the transition from old versions (2G and 3G) to modern (4G and 5G). Scientists suggest that radio frequency electromagnetic fields are significantly reduced when sending text messages compared to loading large files or using audio-video.
Despite these results, scientists emphasize that further research is needed to confirm the cause and effect relationship between the use of smartphones and its impact on spermatogenesis. There are various opinions among scientists on this issue, but to avoid side risks can contribute to keeping the phone away from the body, using a loud communication or headphones, as well as wearing a phone in a bag.
However, for maintaining male fertility and fertilization, sports, balanced nutrition, normal weight, smoking refusal and alcohol consumption are recommended. For those who have problems with conception, it is important to seek the help of specialists.
