Is the blood that comes down after 15 days of using chest inhalers considered menstruation that prevents prayer, or is it not considered menstruation except with the presence of its signs such as pain, especially since the doctor attributed the cause of its continuation to istihadah (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding) due to the inhalers?
