IPL in Bikini Area Affects Reproductive System?

abir
Could IPL to bikini area affect the reproductive system like ovaries? I'm considering doing laser to my bikini area but I want to know if it has any severe side affects like on the long term could it prevent me from getting pregnant later on? Or could it cause sterility?
