Habits keep the phone on his belt is generally done by men. From now on, alert your partner to no longer do so. The reason, according to a study in Turkey, put or keep the phone near the hip area can reduce bone density in the pelvic area which is commonly used for bone grafting.

Research that has been published in the Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, said that the electromagnetic fields emitted by mobile phones can give harmful effects of bone density.

For the study, researchers from Suleyman Demirel University, Isparta using X-ray absorptiometry to measure bone density of the circumference of the pelvis or iliac wings at 150 men who used to keep the phone on his belt. They carry cell phones at the hip on average about 15 hours a day, and have been using cell phones less than 6 years.

The research results showed, bone density decreased on the side of the pelvis is the place where the participants usually bring their cell phone. The difference is probably not very significant and is not close to the limit as decreased bone density in patients with osteoporosis. However, the men who become participants is still relatively young with a median age of 32 and is expected to decrease in bone density will continue as they age.

According to researchers, the iliac wings and pelvis are widely used for bone grafting. This means, the reduction of bone density will affect the reconstruction operation. In a process in which bone density is very important to get good results, then the surgeon should consider the effects of exposure to fields from mobile phones elektromanetik.

Therefore, the researchers hope their findings could be important so that the phone records in the future could reduce the exposure to electromagnetic fields of its users. But while, to prevent that from happening you'll want to keep as much as possible the phone from the body.

"It would be much better if you put the cell phone as far as possible from the body, during our daily activities," said the researcher Dr. Tolga Atay.
