The answer

If blood appears after seeing the signs of purity (ṭuhr), it is considered menstruation (ḥayḍ) and necessitates ghusl (ritual bath) after its cessation, provided its duration does not exceed fifteen days and nights. As for yellowish (ṣufrah) or brownish (kadira) discharge that appears outside the customary period and is not connected to blood, it is not considered menstruation.
