ABSTRACT

Nowadays all phones have become necessary for a part of life. Use of the mobile phones is increasing day by day in advance medical sciences. Many authors have reported the side-effect of electromagnetic radiation of Mobile Phones and also it is caused initially on males fertility in human beings. The present study observed the effect of Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) of Mobile Phone on Sperms in Albino rats. Six animals were used for Control & Experimental groups. EMR of mobile was exposed over the cage of albino rats for 5 hours per day for 2 months. Mobile phone was turned to answering mode for ½ hour per day. After 2 months rats were sacrificed and observed the % of abnormal sperms, sperm count and Morphology of sperms. It was found that % of abnormal sperms were increased in experimental group as compared to Control as well as Sperm count was also decreased in Experimental group as compared to Control group. Different abnormalities in morphology of sperms were observed i.e. Double head, banana head, amorphous head, defective head, headless, bent neck, bent tail, double tail, defective tail & looped tail etc. Therefore, it is concluded that effect of EMR of Mobile Phone is harmful on reproductive health of male.
