The answer

The yellowish and brownish discharges connected to blood are considered menstruation. The fundamental principle is that you remain in a state of menstruation until you observe purity through one of its two signs (dryness or the white discharge). However, if the duration of the blood and its connected yellowish or brownish discharge exceeds fifteen days, then you are experiencing abnormal uterine bleeding (istihada).
