Description

[PLEASE NOTE: In discussing the issue of sirus for women, I missed Rav Moshe Feinstein's teshuvos on tubal ligation (Igros Moshe Even haEzer 3:13 and 4:32-4:36). Rav Moshe is strict regarding women's sirus because he is concerned for the Vilna Gaon's understanding (which is discussed in the audio), and because he prefers certain contraceptive methods over tubal ligation.] Part of a monthly Medical Halachah series, with CME credit for physicians. Topics in Sirus, including TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate), medication which causes infertility, endometrial ablation and silicone plugs.
