1) Impact on male fertility

Decrease sperm quality
EMF radiation from mobile phones can also damage DNA, leading to reduced fertility and an impact on fertility.
Increased testicular temperature
Keeping a mobile phone in your pocket for a long time increases the temperature of the testicles, which reduces sperm production.
2) Impact on female fertility
This harmful radiation emitted from mobile phones can also indirectly affect women’s fertility.
Sleep and melatonin
Most women have the habit of looking at their mobile phones for long hours at night, which not only affects their sleep but also affects the melatonin hormones which also regulate the ovaries.
Stress level
Psychological research has found that excessive use of mobile phones increases stress levels in humans. So mental stress affects the cycle of the fetus.
