Considering the act of sex without the possibility of creating life is a sin. Is it therefore a sin to have sex with yoru wife is she:
A: lost the ability to bear children via disease
B: Lost the ability to have children due to having a hysterectomy to remove cancer
C: Lost the ability to have children due to beign post menopausal?

Serious Inquiry, I want to know the official stance on this subject. I have asked several persons, and always get some wishy-washy answer about “god will understand” or “it’s OK as long as you are married” etc.
