Peace be upon you.
Ayatollah Khamenei and Ayatollah Sistani (may Allah protect them):
If the discharges are not blood and are not accompanied by parts of urine, they are considered pure and do not affect the validity of prayer and fasting. If they are blood and occur after the usual menstrual period, and do not exceed ten days, then all of it is considered menstruation. If they exceed ten days, then what follows the usual menstrual period is considered istihada (irregular bleeding).
May you be successful in all good.
