The period of niddah is a time, usually lasting twelve days to fourteen days, when Jewish law forbids conjugal relations. Niddah begins with the onset of menstruation and is completed with the woman’s immersion in a mikvah (מִקְוֶה), a ritual pool of water. The niddah period and the mikvah immersion have recently seen a renaissance of observance in the Jewish community.
