Permissibly of prostate biopsy

Question:

Is there any Halacha issues with having a biopsy of the prostate?

Answer:

There might be a potential issue, of making the man a krus sufcha, which is a prohibition not to cause sterility, which can happen, even if temporarily, depending on what the doctor wants to do and how he wants to do it.Therefore please ask your doctor what he is planning to do and how he is planning to do it, and get back to us.

Best Wishes and you should have a refuah shleima and a gmar chasima tova.
