Early Mikva
Question
My wife needs to go to the Mikve Friday night, but we are traveling tomorrow in a city that has no Mikve, can she go to the Mikve tonight or does she needs to wait until she gets back from her trip?
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
It is not possible to immerse in the mikvah before 7 full days have passed from the "hefsek tahara."
As such, mikva will have to be delayed.
