Question
My wife has been taking birth control pills (Yaz) since the birth of our child. Now, as she wishes to conceive again, the doctor recommended stopping the pills and using spermicidal candles (Pharmatex) for a month to avoid immediate pregnancy after stopping the pills due to the risk of multiple pregnancies. My question is, is it permissible to use these candles?
Answer
Hello Rabbi,
It is permissible to use these candles if there is a risk in pregnancy.
