Is it obligatory to repeat the prayers and make up for the fasting days if a woman performed ghusl after seeing what she thought was a sign of purity, then saw light pink discharge afterwards, so she stopped praying and fasted as a precaution, and then learned that what appears after purity is not menstruation?

Pink is one of the colors of blood, so what a woman sees after purity is considered menstruation, and abstaining from prayer at that time is correct. She must make up the days of fasting that she observed during that period.
