I know a friend who takes seroquel 25mg for sleep. Seems this is an off-label indication, and doctors use it based on experience
As for your question about decreasing chances to get pregnant, I have no idea about that, but I can tell you that seroquel is in category C of risk for pregnant women. As per FDA, this means:
Either studies in animals have revealed adverse effects on the fetus (teratogenic or embryocidal or other) and there are no controlled studies in women, or studies in women and animals are not available. Drugs should be given only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus

I can only give you my opinion. I would not recommend taking this med just for sleep. It's a pretty powerful med. If you're trying to get pegnant it's a med you most likely will not want to take.
