The answer

Brown discharge (kudrah) is considered menstruation if it occurs during the usual period or is continuous with menstrual blood without interruption. If these spots appear during the menstrual period, they are considered menstruation, invalidate the fast, and necessitate making up for it. It is also considered menstruation if it appears after menstruation and is continuous with it, provided that the total duration does not exceed fifteen days.
