I know that as Catholics we believe that sexual relationship is appropriate only in marriage and that it should be open to life. We also understand that to be open to life means intercourse is the natural completion of sexual activity.

the Question: If a couple is open to life but the wife cant have intercourse because she is always bleeding, can the married couple engage in sexual activity that ends in orgasm but not intercourse?

Help.
 
Well, first she needs to get to the Dr and find out why she is always bleeding, that’s not normal.
But to answer your question, no, you can’t do that. It must always take place during intercourse.

First of all, WELCOME

If you can’t have intercourse because she is always bleading, the abstain and consult your doctor.

As to part 2 of your question, NO.
 
Did she see a doctor? I would see this as a condition that needs attention. I’m not a doctor but I have heard of this before and there are remedies…teachccd
 
Wife should be under a doctors care, I hope she is. Bleeding doesn’t have to be a deterrent to intercourse if the wife isn’t suffering at the time.
 
I agree with the other posters, the woman in this situation needs to see a doctor, who can get the medical issue under control. As to the second part, the church teaches, that no, sexual conduct needs to end in a life-giving way. Absitnance can be hard, but it’s possible, and a great way to bond.
 
I would also advise that the wife be careful about following the Dr’s advice. Many OB/GYN’s are lazy and would simply prescribe some sort of ABC to treat the symptoms instead of figuring out what the actual problem is and attacking it head-on. I knew a woman who was prescribed an IUD because she was bleeding for months straight. The source of the problem was never fixed, but since the bleeding stopped, her Dr. was ok with it. Make sure you get a full exam and all the bloodwork and tests that may be necessary to diagnose the condition, and then treat the actual condition, rather than allowing the doc to put a birth control band-aid on it.
 
It could be something very serious. Make the medical situation a priority.
 
No, I hate to be frank but the male must always end his act within the woman or the sexual activity is not open to life and is therefore sinful.
 
my wife suffered this problem after our last born…she had serious health issues that need to be attended immediately…cnacer of the ovaires,she had that taken care of then still needed a hystorectomy,cause she still was spotting…
.go get medical help now!!! this is your priority…
as for non intercoase relaese for the hubby NOT,sorry man i know how that feels.
 
Thanks for all the comments. Obviously her health is most important and I am sorry I didnt start out by saying that she is seeing all kinds of doctors to figure this out. They have eliminated life threatening things (ie cancer). Medical issues aside, I was hoping to get moremoral insight.

thanks
 
when either partner in the marriage is unable to engage in sexual activity for medical reasons, for instance after the husband’s heart attack, or while the wife is recovering from surgery, they do not engage in sexual activity. It is a fact of life that there are times in marriage that call for continence. There life together then becomes enriched as they find dozens of other ways to express their love, first and foremost in caring for the needs of the other, and express affection in any way they can that does not pose a danger or strain on the other. Impoverished indeed is the marriage in which intercourse is the only way they have ever learned to express love and affection.
