If the discharge that appeared on the eighth day resembles the white discharge ("al-qassah al-bayda'"), then menstruation has ended, and her fasting was valid during the period of purity. The subsequent discharges are not considered menstruation but do invalidate ablution (wudu'). The white discharge ("al-qassah al-bayda'") is a white fluid resembling semen or urine. Purity is achieved by one of two things: the white discharge ("al-qassah al-bayda'") or dryness ("al-jufuf"), which is when a cotton swab comes out dry with no blood on it.
