Hair Removal on Genitalia

Tanveer Janjua, MD answers: Side effects of Laser hair removal on genitalia?

I'm a male, and I am in the process of laser hair removal of my genitals. Is there any fertility concerns? Or other serious side effects of treatment?

There are no known side effects of laser hair removal on male genitalia i.e., penile shaft and scrotum. The question of infertility has not been addressed but the likelihood of any damage to the production of sperms is small. The sperms are produced frequently. Even if there was any damage to the sperms, those will  be replaced with newer healthier sperms.
