Slight bleeding in the first two days is not considered menses unless it continues for a day and a night. A (ritual bath) is not required for its cessation. As for the blood that returns at the end of the menstrual period, it is considered menses if it appears during a time suitable for menstruation. A ghusl is required upon seeing purity, and then the woman returns to the state of menses if the bleeding recurs.
