Aim: Given the increasing usage of cell phones (6.9 billion subscriptions globally) and heterogeneous reports, this study aimed to determine the cell phone effect as non-ionizing radiation on the level of testosterone hormone and sperm parameters in male rats. Material and Methods: Twenty-five matured male Wistar rats were randomly allocated to five groups with the same body weights. Radiofrequency radiation for the exposed groups was 1 h/day call, 2 h/day call, and 50 missed calls/day in 30 days. The other two groups were control (out of any radiation) and positive control (exposed to γ-radiation) groups. Sperm parameters (motility, morphology, viability, counting), histopathology, and serum level of testosterone were measured and analyzed. Results: According to the results, the sperm viability significantly decreased compared to the control group (p |
