Peer-reviewed research finds 60 days of 35.5 GHz exposure—a 5G frequency band—causes DNA damage, reduced sperm count, and oxidative stress in rat reproductive tissue.

"The results showed a significant decrease in sperm viability and count, as well as morphometric changes in testis histopathology."

— Rohit Gautam et al.

"The comet assay revealed a significant increase in DNA damage in the exposed group, indicating genotoxic effects."

— Rohit Gautam et al.

"Chronic exposure to 35.5 GHz frequency may negatively impact male reproductive function and testicular tissue, primarily through mechanisms involving oxidative stress."

— Rohit Gautam et al.
