Birth control in marriage
Rabbi Gideon Weitzman
Iyyar 18, 5774
Question
Does Orthodox Judaism permit the married couple to use birth control primarily to contracept or is birth control limited for medical reasons?
Answer
Shalom,
Again this is a complex question and there are numerous opinions as to when and how it is permitted to use contraception. There are many cases in which a couple will receive permission to use contraception even for "family planning" and not just in cases of a medical necessity.
