The blood of menstruation is a well-known flowing blood, black with a foul odor, and it is thick. It flows from the womb and is not in drops.
If a small amount of blood comes out, like drops or a thread, then this is not menstruation but rather from the veins. It does not affect the fast, and the woman's fast is valid.
