Nishmat Ha-Bayit
Contemporary Questions on Women’s Reproductive Health
Addressed by Yoatzot Halakha (translated from the Hebrew edition)
This book was born following seventeen years of Yoatzot Halakha work in the field. It is not intended to be a sefer psak, but rather to foster awareness of the halakhic challenges experienced by observant women, and to organize the halakhah for the benefit of those who are learning, with the aim of strengthening proper observance of halakhah and alleviating the grief which clouds the lives of many couples. Out of the thousands of anonymous questions in our database, this book is a collection of questions dealing with pregnancy, childbirth, and contraception. Their unique value lies in their addressing issues which women are facing today
