Women with Regular Periods That Experience Lochia for One Month Postpartum
Issue No.494-Many women will discharge blood for a month or more after childbirth. If such women have a regular period, they should consider the time equal to the duration of their menstruation as nifās and the next ten days as istiḥāḍah. If after the lapse of ten days the bleeding coincides with the days of their menstrual period (irrespective of whether the blood bears the signs of ḥayḍ or not), they must act according to the rules relating to a ḥā’iḍ and in case it does not coincide with their period, it should be regarded as istiḥāḍah unless the blood has the signs of ḥayḍ.
