Question

My wife received instructions from the doctor to stop taking contraceptives due to a medical issue. The question is whether she is allowed to immerse and have relations without withdrawal, or if there is a problem with this, and whether the mitzvah of Onah is fulfilled in this way?

Answer

Shalom u'vracha

It is permitted to immerse and have such relations. However, not regularly, due to the concern of wasting seed.

The mitzvah of Onah is fulfilled in the act of closeness itself.
