Abstract
A woman wishing to conceive may be separated from her spouse at the time of ovulation. Moreover, some orthodox Jewish women have a unique problem when they are unable to initiate intercourse before ovulation. They are prohibited from participating in sexual relations from the start of menstruation until 7 days after the end of flow when they go to the ritual bath (mikveh). Two orthodox Jewish women who ovulated before restarting intercourse were treated with oral estrogens to delay ovulation. Women separated from their husbands at the time of ovulation and Jewish women who ovulate before ritual cleansing can effectively use oral estrogens to program ovulation.
