RITUAL IMMERSION IN A LAKE

The Rav Name: Rabbi Meir Arad

Is it permissible for a woman to perform her ritual immersion, tvila, in a lake?

It is permissible for a woman to perform her ritual immersion, tvila, in a lake, only in the event that there is no available mikve (ritual pool) and if she does not use the lake, her immersion will have to be delayed. Also, the water should not be flowing, and it should be done with guidance from a Rabbi in order to clarify additional details.
