What is the ruling on making up missed prayers due to considering blood discharged after six days as istihadah (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding), in the case where she previously believed it to be a continuation of her menstrual period as long as it did not exceed fifteen days, and should each missed prayer be made up at its due time?

If the blood discharge exceeds the usual duration of menstruation, it is considered menstruation as long as it does not exceed fifteen days. Therefore, the continuation of bleeding until the eleventh or fifteenth day is considered menstruation, which prevents prayer and does not require making up for missed prayers.
