چکیده مقاله:

Background Humans in modern society are exposed to an ever-increasing number of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) generated from the production and supply of electricity, television (TV) sets, personal computer (PC), radio communication, and mobile communication. Electromagnetic radiation is a form of energy that is produced by oscillating electric and magnetic disturbance, or by the movement of electrically charged particles traveling through a vacuum or matter. The available studies document damage to the reproductive system, impacts on the EEG and brain functions, as well as effects on the heart, liver, thyroid, gene expression, cell cycle, cell membranes, bacteria, and plants. As a mechanism of action, many studies identify oxidative stress, too. Adverse effects on learning, memory, attention, and behavior are the result of cytotoxic effects Method A critical review of the literature pertaining to the impact of cell phone RF-EMR on reproduction in female humans was performed with related keywords in PubMed, Science direct and Google scholar and SID to gather information in articles published since 2015 and summarized here. Results At the cellular level, an increase in free radicals and [Ca2+] may mediate the effect of EMFs and lead to cell growth inhibition, protein misfolding, and DNA breaks. EMFs can disrupt Ca2+- dependent cell signaling which could be related to ovule releasing and menstrual cycle Data in animals and humans might indicate an adverse impact caused by RF-EMR on granulosa cells, ovarian follicle numbers, and endometrial tissue, quality of oocytes and embryos and even alterations on fetal heart physiology during pregnancy. Besides, Radiation is also related to oxidative stress and overproduction of free oxygen radicals in female and infertility A study examined oxidative stress and apoptosis induced by radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation (RF-EMR) on rat endometrial tissue exposed for 30 min/day for 30 days to RF-EMR. Their results indicated that mobile phones may cause endometrial apoptosis and oxidative stress
