Does the COVID-19 vaccine affect fertility?

Question: 

Does the COVID-19 vaccine affect fertility?

Answer: 
Millions of people have received an mRNA vaccine in Canada and around the world. Data has shown no evidence that COVID-19 vaccines cause fertility problems. 
 
COVID-19 vaccination is strongly recommended for people who are planning a pregnancy. Those intending to become pregnant don't need to delay pregnancy after vaccination with an mRNA vaccine.
