Riesgo de baja fertilidad masculina

Los teléfonos móviles reducen la motilidad de los espermatozoides más rápidos

Por esa razón pueden provocar problemas de subfertilidad

Summary
Objective: To evaluate the influence
of electromagnetic waves (EMW)
caused by mobile phones on sperm
motility.
Methods: 13 men with a normal
spermiogramm regarding the WHO
criteria were included in our study.
After a GSM-mobile phone was not
carried or used during 5 days a first
spermiogram was analysed. Four
weeks later, a second spermiogram
was performed. Five days before this
second spermiogram, men carried
the mobile phone on the belt and
used it 6 hours a day intensively.
Spermiogram parameters of the first
and second spermiogram were
compared.
Results: Rapid progressive spermatozoa
were reduced significantly in the
second spermiogram compared to
the first. Decrease was from (mean)
32.3 % (SD ± 6.13) to (mean) 26.1 %
(SD ± 6.5), p = 0.0004. In addition
there was a shift to an increase of
progressive spermatozoa from mean
24.8 % (SD ± 3.62) to 29.7 % (SD ±
6.11), p = 0.01. All other spermiogramm
parameters like semen volume,
density and morphology did not differ
significantly.
Conclusion: Our data suggest a
decreased motility of rapid progressive
spermatozoa caused by electromagnetic
waves of GSM-mobile
phones. These findings may have an
impact in counselling subfertile men.
