Intimacy After Menopause
Question
Shalom, This may seem a little odd as a question... We know that a man should not have "zeraa le'batala" what happens when you reach an age that the woman in in menopause and obviously cant get pregnant, does the man still has to have only full intercourse? Or there aren't restrictions of how he is releasing his sperms? I apologize for the direct approach. Thank you. IYB
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question
The laws of intimacy apply equally after menopause as they do before menopause. For example, as a general rule, male ejaculation must always internal.
