Study the effect of mobile electromagnetic waves on growth Hormone in rats

In the modern life of today, the use of mobile phones is remarkable Growth hormone is a hormone released from the anterior pituitary or adenohypophysis. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of mobile phone waves on the prolactin hormone of female rats. In this study, 35 adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, each containing 7 rats. Control group  who received no waves for 7 days, Sham group 1 and 2 who were exposed to mobile phones for 7 days, 3 and 6 hours on every day only (no conversation). Experimental group 1 and 2 exposed to mobile waves (in conversation) for 3 and 6 hours respectively for 7 days. The serum samples were collected and the growth hormone was measured by Eliza method. The data were analyzed using SPSS software and one way ANOVA. The results showed that two experimental groups 1 and 2 had a significant decrease in the mean concentration of growth hormone with control groups and two groups of sham 1 and 2. Also, the decrease in growth hormone in experimental group 2 compared to experimental group 1 was significant. The Sham 2 group also had a significant decrease compared to the control group.The results of this study indicate a significant decrease in the concentration of growth hormone in groups affected by the waves from mobile phone.
