[交流] 【Pure water】Study: Laptops may damage sperm

A word of caution for men trying to have kids: your laptop may be impacting the quality of your sperm.

In the first scientific study of its kind, researchers found Wi-Fi on laptops could be causing damage to your sperm’s DNA.

Researchers studied how exposure to Wi-Fi enabled laptops, or the microwave radiation, impacted sperm production. They found men exposed for only four hours experienced measurable DNA damage to their sperm and a reduction in movement, or motility, of the sperm.

"The word is cautionary," said Dr. Dale McClure, Urologist and male fertility specialist from the University of Washington at Seattle. "I don't think we should rush out and stop using laptops, but I think if you're using a laptop, maybe not keep it on your groin."

The study was presented by Argentine researchers here in Denver at the American Society for Reproductive Medicine conference.

We asked men and women using laptops at Stella's Coffee Haus on South Pearl Street how it might impact their laptop use.

"Would it stop me from using my computer? Probably not. Would it make me take it off my lap? Maybe," said Craig Rangel, who said he already has one child and is thinking about another.

"At this point in life, because I'm not considering kids, I don't think it would even enter my mind," said Kristina Stamatis, a high school teacher who is single.

"I don't know how else I'd function without (my laptop)," said Nat Ridder, who is also single and childless, "And right now ... sperm count doesn't count for a lot in my lifestyle."

"Our society has kind of pushed us to a point business-wise where you don't really have a choice. You kind of have to use your computer all the time," said Dale Greer, a wine dealer who said he and his wife are considering having children.

An earlier study on microwave radiation from cell phones led scientists to determine it can reduce sperm quality. So now they recommend not carrying your cell phone in your pocket.

Until more definitive research is done you might want to keep your laptop away from your groin as well.

xuanxuankaoyan(金币+1):I think laptops when you put it on your laps, it can be harmful to your body, whereas put it on the desk, and keep a certain gap between you body and laptop, it is just ok. 2010-11-10 10:25:25
So, No matter women or men all should pay attention your laptops preventing them from your body, for they are so harmful.
