Wi-Fi Threatens Quality of Sperm
Wi-Fi Threatens Quality of Sperm | In the modern era, technology continues to evolve rapidly. However, be careful because the technology is not always useful and even actually have an impact on health issues.Researchers speculate that the laptop is connected to the wireless signal to access the Internet turned out to have an impact on declining male fertility.
Researchers from Argentina showed a significant decrease in sperm motility and an increase in sperm DNA fragmentation as compared with other sperm stored in the same temperature.
Before announcing the results of research published in the journal Fertility and Sterility, the scientists conducted research on 29 healthy men. Before beginning the study, each participant sperm sample is taken.
Then, the researchers put the seed under a laptop that is ready to download data via a laptop connected to a Wi-Fi.
Four hours later, a quarter are no longer capable of swimming sperm compared with 14 percent of the comparison of sperm samples stored in the same temperature but placed far away from the laptop.
In addition, 9 percent of sperm DNA damage indicate the presence of three-fold compared with the comparison of sperm.
Researchers believe that electromagnetic radiation when the laptop is connected to Wi-Fi signals to cause a decline in sperm quality.
"Our data explain that the use of a computer or laptop connected to the internet (using the Wi-Fi) and placed close to the male reproductive organs can decrease sperm quality," wrote the researchers in their research results.
