Was Fatima al-Zahra not menstruating?
What is mentioned in the question concerning Lady Fatima al-Zahra, may Allah be pleased with her, not menstruating, is from fabricated or extremely weak hadiths. Among these hadiths are: "My daughter Fatima is a human houri; she neither menstruated nor had postpartum bleeding," and "Indeed, I never saw blood for Fatima, neither in menstruation nor in postpartum bleeding. He said: 'Did you not know that my daughter is pure?'" Al-Manawi, Al-Kattani, Ibn al-Jawzi, and Al-Suyuti stated that these hadiths are false or fabricated, and it is not permissible to narrate them except to clarify their falsity.
