Evidence of cell phone induced oxidative stress in semen comes from animal and human studies.
Grundler et al. were the first to demonstrate that EMW induce free radical activity in cells. Animal studies
have shown various examples of cell phone induced OS (Oxidative Stress) in the eyes, brain, kidneys and
endometrial lining of uterus. (Akbari and Jelodar, 2013). Correspondingly, Oxidative stress affects male
fertility from many ways such as lipid peroxidation, cross-linking and inactivation of proteins,
fragmentation of DNA, impair of sperm motility With professional diagnosis techniques for oxidative
stress and antioxidant, we can find appropriate solutions for decreasing of disorders and forecast of
increasing in male infertility. (Agarwal, Singh, Hamada and Kesari, 2011). In addition to the epidemiological
studies, the effects of RF-EMW are well studied in animal studies and "in vitro" studies on human semen.
Many studies have indicated that EMW decreases the size of the testicular organs. A decrease in the
diameter of the seminiferous tubules has been reported after exposure to radiofrequency radiations
(Desai, Kesari and Agarwal, 2009).
This Research highlights the dangers of electromagnetic radiation to the human health and is of
importance to the following:
For Health, this paper deepens the dangers in which electromagnetic radiation causes long term
and short term illness particularly, nervous disorder, birth defects and infertility. Accordingly,
electromagnetic radiation results to irreversible diseases which need to avoid, as the saying goes
Prevention is better than cure.
For radiologist, this paper provides information regarding the diseases caused by electromagnetic
radiation emits by mobile phones. In which, these information can somehow help with the studies of
curing such diseases.
For General Public, this paper establishes awareness about the dangers of too much exposure to
mobile phones that emits electromagnetic radiation which causes risk to the human health. Generally
speaking, the cellular phones which we hold and use every day will eventually cause dangers to us.
For Budding Research, this paper broadens the idea of unhealthy effects of electromagnetic
radiation to the health of every human. So then, this paper supports whatever concept regarding
damaging effects of electromagnetic radiation to the well-being of human.
Above all, almost everyone in the world uses cellphone and as the population rises the users in
the same manner do. So then, if we could have a study which will broaden the concept of the risk of
electromagnetic radiation to humans we could have the power to establish an awareness of its dangers.
