Impact of Mobile Phones on Testosterone Levels

Keeping mobile phones in pockets can negatively affect testosterone levels and fertility due to increased heat and electromagnetic frequency (EMF) exposure. Research indicates that prolonged contact with phones can raise testicular temperature, leading to suppressed hormone production. Suggestions to mitigate this include using airplane mode to reduce radiation exposure and limiting direct contact by storing phones in bags instead of pockets. While some may rely on EMF shielding stickers, these lack substantial clinical evidence of effectiveness, so the best practice is to minimize pocket usage altogether.
