Question:
The questioner says: A woman has tumors in her uterus that cause her to bleed from time to time, and she is forced to receive blood transfusions. Is it permissible for her to have the uterus removed? She has previously undergone surgery to remove these tumors, but the tumors have returned.
Answer:
This is a matter in which the specialized doctors should be consulted. I do not know about it; my father was a doctor. If the doctors decide that the uterus should be removed, then there is nothing wrong with removing it out of dire necessity. The specialized doctors should be consulted regarding this. Yes.
