Effect of Bikini Laser Hair Reduction on fertility
There is no scientific evidence that shows that the energy delivered during laser hair reduction in the bikini area penetrates deeply through the various layers of tissue- skin, fat, muscle, etc to affect the ovaries in any way.
To be thorough, do consult with you obstetrician to get their opinion.

Laser hair removal
We do not have evidence that energy generated by a laser device for hair removal would interfere with your baby's development. The energy only reaches the dermis of the skin, and not even the fat and especially not the muscle below.

Laser Hair Removal of the groins Does NOT Affect Fertility
Laser hair removal specifically impress heat to hair follicles in the deep layer of skin. This energy is very specific and does not penetrate through the skin, the fat, the muscles of the tummy wall, the intestines to reach, much less affect in any way the ovaries and fertility in any way.
