Meta-Study Proves Cell Phone Radiation Exposure Impacts Male Infertility

Men that want to start a family may want to reconsider how closely they store their cell phone to the family jewels.

A new meta-analysis of ten past studies, found a consistent drop in sperm quality if the men had been exposed to cell phone radiation.

“The implications are likely to be greatest for subgroups of men with multiple exposures to different factors which act together to affect their sperm; and possibly for men who already have borderline fertility,” said researcher Fiona Mathews, Ph.D

This “meta-study” or study of studies published in the journal Environment International on June 10, 2014 – found that cell phone usage was associated with an 8.1 percent descent in sperm motility (how fast the sperm swim) and 10 percent change in sperm viability (if sperm can make it to the egg alive).
