Microplastic Found in Penises: Plastic is proving to be more dangerous than beneficial for humans. Small pieces of plastic have entered people’s bodies to such an extent that it is difficult to remove them. Now scientists have made a sensational claim that very small pieces of plastic have been found in the penis or private part of a human being. These are called microplastics. Earlier, in a research that came out last month, pieces of microplastic were found in the testicles and semen of men. However, now these dangerous pieces have reached the private parts of men.
of ‘The Guardian’ Report According to experts, after finding microplastics in men’s private parts, questions have started arising whether this dangerous thing is causing erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. Experts say that in recent decades, there has been a decline in male fertility, but at present it is difficult to say that microplastics are the reason for this. However, microplastics have been seen damaging human cells in the lab. In such a situation, the truth will be revealed only after more research on this matter.
According to scientists, the pieces of microplastic found in the private parts of men come from the things used for packaging food and drinks. Now the question is how did these pieces reach the private part? On this, the researchers say that during erection, there is more blood flow in the private part, due to which the pieces of microplastic must have reached there. These pieces have dissolved in our bloodstream and through this they reach many other body parts. Usually people swallow microplastics while eating, drinking and breathing and they reach the bloodstream.
Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste is dumped into the environment and it slowly breaks down into microplastics. A large amount of microplastics goes into the sea, which is reaching the bodies of aquatic animals. Apart from this, it is also reaching the human body through food and drinks. Overall, it can be said that pieces of microplastic have reached most parts of the body and this can cause serious health hazards. However, research is ongoing about what damage it is causing to the body.
