Exposure to electromagnetic fields during pregnancy.

Gideon Koren1.   

Abstract

QUESTION: Several of my patients quote recent media coverage claiming that working with home appliances could increase the risk of misarriages. What is your advice? ANSWER: Two recent epidemiologic studies from California have suggested an increased risk of miscarriages associated with exposure to magnetic fields. Even if the threshold associated with such risk is a biologic and true risk (and not just an association), it does not appear to arise from typical use of hair dryers, microwave ovens, vacuum cleaners, and similar home appliances.
