How can a female student with irregular and delayed menstruation, who follows a vegan diet and suffers from malnutrition, deal with the rulings of ghusl (ritual bath) after menstruation when the bleeding stops and then returns? Is she required to make up for the prayers and fasting for the days when the bleeding stops before her estimated customary period is complete? And what are the ways to regularize her menstrual cycle?

As soon as purity is observed, one must perform . If the bleeding returns during a time when it could be menstruation, she should wait until it stops, then perform ghusl again. Her acts of worship during the intervening period of purity are valid.
