Dysmenorrhea Since Teenage, Relieves With Mefanic Acid. Will Its Long Term Use Affect Fertility?

Hi , am 30 yrs old and have been having dysmenorrhoea since age 13. I have been taking mefenamic acid which gives me some relief. I am worried though that since I have been taking it for this long, it might affect my ferility. I only take the drug during my periods only. I am also trying to conceive but not actively. should I be worried?
