In today's society, when you walk on the street, everyone will find that almost everyone has a mobile phone, which has become a necessity in our lives. Along with it, many problems have arisen, such as radiation from mobile phones, sharp decline in eyesight caused by long-term playing with mobile phones, and other issues. Mobile phones affect our health. Is it true that men who use mobile phones for more than 4 hours can cause sexual impotence? Let's take a closer look.
According to the Daily Mail of England, researchers have found a link between cell phone use and male erectile dysfunction. Men who use their phones for more than 4 hours a day are more likely to develop impotence than those who use them for less than 2 hours.
The survey included 20 male patients with sexual dysfunction (Group A) and 10 healthy males (Group B). The researchers asked them to complete the "Male Sexual Health Survey" and assess their sexual function based on the International Erectile Function Index. Research has shown that there are no significant differences in their age, weight, smoking habits, phone usage, and testosterone, a type of male hormone. However, sick men do spend a lot more time carrying an open mobile phone in their pocket or in their hands than healthy men - 4.4 hours a day for the former and only 1.8 hours for the latter.
"This prospective pilot study suggests a possible link between cell phone use and erectile dysfunction. The effects of exposure to strong radiation for a short period of time during a phone call are more severe than the sum of all time spent in cell phone contact," the researchers said
In the study "The impact of mobile phones on male semen parameters", there is evidence that the use of mobile phones can affect sperm quality, including sperm motility and morphology. The researchers emphasize that because the link between erectile dysfunction and sperm quality cannot be determined for the time being, a lot of work needs to be done to investigate more men for research.
