Hormonal Imbalance/ Irregular Menstruation Of Women Cannot Be Considered As Female Impotency: Madras High Court
Live LawThe Madras High Court has held that hormonal imbalance or irregular periods would not amount to impotency of a woman and would not mean that she is unfit to have sex. Justice RN Manjula observed thus while hearing a revision petition against a Family Court's order directing a woman's medical examination on her husband's plea for annulment of marriage citing non-consummation.The bench held. Justice RN Manjula observed thus while hearing a revision petition against a Family Court's order directing a woman's medical examination on her husband's plea for annulment of marriage citing non-consummation. Observing that the main petition itself was in the stage of pronouncing orders, the court gave liberty to the Family Court to pass appropriate orders taking into account the evidence available on record instead of directing the revision petitioner alone to go for medical examination in order to confirm the admitted facts about hormonal imbalance and irregular periods.
