Question

I have a question regarding haidh. I have always been regular with my period. Every month more or less at the same time I get it. However I went for an op and I am on medication. This has left me spotting continuously. How do I work out my haidh days. Do I work on 10 days haidh and 15 clean days in between?

Answer

If you are bleeding or spotting continuously, then you should follow your previous menstrual cycle.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
