1- Is it permissible to go to a female gynecologist for an examination during the daytime in Ramadan?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Having medical examinations like X-rays and the like does not affect fasting. As for an endoscopy that enters the stomach, there is a difference of opinion, and the correct view is that it does not break the fast unless it involves oil that reaches the stomach.
