Is woman on top advisable in sex when male member has got hernia problem?

No problem: Intercourse generally does not cause issues with hernias unless you are having pain from the hernia in general. Most positions are fine unless you are lifting her thus increasing intra-abdominal pressure.

Activty as tolerated: If you have a hernia, you should generally limit your activity as tolerated by symptoms (usually pain or discomfort). That includes sexual activity.
