Is the fast of one who felt something during ghusl in the morning, without being certain it was semen, valid, given that she considered it a whisper [waswasa] and continued her fast? And is it obligatory to make up the days whose validity was doubted during the fast, even without the intention to break it?

Your fast is valid as long as you are not certain that semen was discharged, based on the Prophet's (PBUH) saying: "He should not leave until he hears a sound or smells an odor." For the sake of piety and caution, it is recommended to make up any fasts about whose validity you are uncertain.
