OU just released an important statement regarding mikvah.

For anyone nervous to use but feeling bad not going (like myself...I was supposed to go after Shabbos...and was a wreck about it, so didn't go). This is a very reassuring, calming, relieving, and amazing part of the statement:

"Everyone must respect a woman’s wish to delay her immersion in the Mikvah and resumption of intimacy until the pandemic has passed. "

Thank you to the rabbis for easing women's minds and taking pressure off. While my husband wasn't pressuring me to go, BH, I still felt awful not going. I'm sure this will help women who ARE being pressured but are afraid.

Here is a link to the full statement:
