Previously we had discussed about laptop heat being the fertility killer, today we'll talk about the affects of WIFI from laptops have on your little swimmers.
Recent studies in 2011 suggest that wifi use actually has an effect on sperm, causing sperm damage and DNA fragmentation.
The reults of the studies, conduted by researchers at Nascentis Medicina Reproductiva, Argentina, and the Eastern Virginia Medical School, USA, were published in the Fertility and Sterility journal.
The study was conducted in a controlled setting where semen samples from 29 healthy and fertile men were placed under laptops for four hours, one set with the wifi turned on and another set where there was no wifi.
At the end of the study, 25% of semen in the wifi group was found to be damaged (not swimming actively and fumbling around) and 9% showed DNA fragmentation, compared to 14% and 3% respectively in the non-wifi group.
The scientists and researchers suggested that the sperm damage was caused by the electromagnetic radiation caused by wifi. Further studies on wifi showed that wifi carried significant electromagnetic radiation that could potentially affect fertility if not carefully managed.
None of the studies are conclusive, but take to heart that wise men will protect their next generation with discretion! Keep the laptops off your laps if you can avoid it!
