Should a woman who experienced bleeding two days before miscarrying and continued to bleed for two days after the miscarriage, the fetus being two months old, make up the days she fasted in Ramadan?

If a woman miscarries a fetus in which human features (such as a head and limbs) have not yet become apparent, and its age is two months, then the blood discharged is considered 'fasad' (corrupt) blood, and it does not prevent her from praying or fasting. The woman was correct in fasting those days, and she does not owe any make-up fasts. The minimum period in which human features become apparent is eighty-one days.
