Is it better for a woman who has performed the obligatory Hajj to repeat it, or is one Hajj sufficient, considering the hardship and the mixing with men during the rituals?

Repeating Hajj contains great virtue for men and women. However, with the severe crowding and the mixing of men and women, and many women not safeguarding themselves from causes of temptation, it is better and safer for their religion, and further from harm, for women not to repeat Hajj. Likewise for men, if it is possible to refrain from performing Hajj excessively with the intention of easing conditions for pilgrims and alleviating crowding, we hope that their reward for refraining will be greater than their reward for performing Hajj, if their refraining is due to this good intention.
