The ruling on a woman's blood in her forties and fifties

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on the menstrual period that comes to a woman in her forty-eighth or forty-ninth or fiftieth year, where it comes every two or three months, irregular, but its pains are the pains of menstruation? And the question is: is this considered a menstrual period, and what is the woman's status in this case?

Answer:
Yes, as long as the woman has not reached fifty, the blood that comes to her with the characteristics of menstrual blood is menstruation, even if it is delayed or comes early, because the custom may be delayed or come early, and it may increase or decrease. So as long as she has not reached fifty, whatever blood comes to her that has the characteristics of menstrual blood is menstruation until she reaches fifty.
