A new study claims that radio-frequency energy from cell phones decreased male fertility.
Do you talk hands-free on your cell phone and keep the handset in your pants pocket? If so, according to a new study, the electromagnetic waves could be decreasing your fertility.

Researchers Ashok Agarwal and Edmund Sabanegh noted:
"The study results were sufficiently dramatic to attract extensive media attention, but additional research is necessary."
