A 2026 study from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia exposed male rats to 2.45 GHz RF-EMR (Wi-Fi frequency) at 0.141 W/m2 for 4 or 24 hours daily over 60 days. Prolonged exposure caused significant increases in GnRH and reduced testicular testosterone in the 24-hour group, suggesting selective endocrine effects on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis.

"Prolonged 2.45 GHz RF-EMR exposure caused selective changes in components of the HPG axis, particularly involving GnRH and testosterone, suggesting potential endocrine effects on male reproductive regulation."

— Vijay et al. (study authors)

"GnRH levels increased significantly in both exposed groups, while FSH and LH remained unchanged. Testicular testosterone was significantly reduced in the 24 h group, while serum testosterone was elevated in the 24 h group compared to the 4 h group."
