A study by Martha Dirnfeld found men who do this were seriously affected in 47 percent of the cases, as opposed to just 11 percent of men in the general population.

But it doesn't end there.  The study went even further and found that even keeping your phone nearby on a bedside table also affects your sperm count as well.

So guys, the bottom line is simple: Be mindful on where you're keeping your phone, and for how long.  Man... who knew that thing was so dangerous.  Yikes!
