The ruling on a woman's bleeding after the age of menopause due to medication

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this is a questioner who says: There is a woman whose monthly period stopped

Answer:
What? There is a woman whose monthly period stopped for four months until she reached the age of menopause, then the doctor prescribed her a treatment to prevent osteoporosis, and then after that to prevent it. To prevent osteoporosis. Screen. Osteoporosis. Osteoporosis, yes. Then the doctor prescribed her a treatment to prevent osteoporosis, and then after that her period returned, and the blood was like the color and smell of the period. What does she do, O Honorable Shaykh? Does she pray or does she stop? She is currently praying despite the blood coming out of her. Yes, she prays, and this blood is not menstruation, and its cause is known; its cause is this medication, so it is bleeding and not menstruation. Also, it is after fifty, and there is no menstruation after fifty. So she is required to pray, clean herself at the time of prayer, and place something on the exit, such as cotton or something else, then perform wudu' and pray, and she does this for every prayer.
