Partial Fasting on Tisha B’Av

Question

A woman who ate with halachic permission and then no longer needs to eat—must she continue fasting?

Answer

Shalom and blessings.

One who is exempt from fasting on Tisha B’Av is completely exempt. Therefore, there is no need to calculate how much she needs; she may eat and drink as usual.
