No Brainer: Mobile Phone Use
During Pregnancy Might Cause Issues

Cell Phone Radiation Protection

When it comes to a healthy pregnancy, women are often asked
to cut out quite a few things in order to ensure the
healthiest development as possible. This includes the
regular things like no smoking or drinking, but it doesn’t
end there. Generally it is advised that during pregnancy you
avoid caffeine, too much fish intake, and…. cell phones?
Believe or not, a new study claims that too much time on
your mobile might lead to developmental issues in fetuses.
The research team behind the findings was led by Dr. Hugh S.
Taylor, a professor and chief of the Division of
Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility in the Department
of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences at Yale.
Long title, short meaning: Dr. Taylor is an expert when it
comes to subjects like infertility and even pregnancy
related issues.
So what exactly did this team find out and what did they do
to test their findings? Essentially they kept a cell phone
running during the entire duration of the test. This led to
cell phone radiation exposure on these rats, all of whom
were pregnant. The new rodents born under near-constant
exposure to cell radiation were then tested through a
variety of experiments. Two groups were compared, rats that
didn’t have the exposure as fetuses, and those that did.
The rats with the near-constant exposure exerted behavior
that fell in line with what we refer to as ADHD. For those
that don’t know, this is a behavioral disorder that
manifests itself as a form of extreme hyperactivity and lack
of focus and concentration. The team attributes this change
to radiation hitting the prefrontal cortex while they are
fetuses.
For those reading this that are expecting a little one (or
if know someone who is), I wouldn’t recommend chucking that
cell phone out in fear of radiation just yet. This is the
first experiment to directly take a look at this potential
issue and many things still need to be determined. For
example, we don’t know exactly how much radiation is too
much. The rodents in the experiment almost constantly had
exposure, so my best advice is that if you currently use
your phone 24/7 and are expecting to become pregnant (or
perhaps your significant other is), then I’d cut back.
Being such an important new study, I can pretty much
guarantee you that more research is yet to come. For those
with possible concerns, I would simply suggest that you
don’t go on 16-hour talking binges and perhaps shut off your
phone or keep it a good distance away from you when not in
use.
Overall an interesting study, but one study doesn’t
conclusively prove anything. I am interested to see what is
determined in the long run, after multiple studies, though.
