This artcle contains the iformation that you need.


ISTIHADAH

(Non-menstrual vaginal bleeding) and the rules associated with it

Istihadah is vaginal bleeding for reasons other than menstruation or childbirth. In some women bleeding never stops, in others it continues for longer than a normal period, but it does stop for a short period.

The woman affected by it is in one of the three conditions:

She had a known regular menses before the onset of the Istihadah. She should calculate when her period would normally come, and stop offering Salat during the days of her calculated period. And all the others rules of menstruation would apply to her during that calculated period. For the rest of the days, her bleeding should be treated as Istihadha.
She did not have a regular period, or does not remember when it sued to occur, but she can distinguish between the two kinds of blood based on color, thickness and smell. (Menstrual bloods is dark, thick, and with a strong odor, (Istihadha is bright red, thin and less disagreeable in smell).
She didn’t have a regular period, and even cannot distinguish between the two types of blood, either because it’s always the same, or because it’s always changing, she should go by the average period of most women; so for 6 to 7 days, every month, she should consider herself menstruating, and that should be calculated from the time she first noticed vaginal bleeding, the rest of the days should be treated as Istihadah.
There is no difference between a woman beset by Istihadha and a woman who has a complete cessation of menstrual flow, except as follows:

If the woman beset by Istihadha wants to perform Wudu’, she should wash the blood from her vaginal area then apply a menstrual pad or wrap the area with a clean rag on top of a wad of cotton to catch the blood; any blood coming out after that is of no account.
She must perform Wudu’ for every Fard (obligatory) Salat, as the Prophet (P.B.U.H) ordered a woman in this condition:

Answer 2

If any type of blood comes out, i would think that you would have to perform Ghusl, and do wudu so you could redo your salat.

Answer 3

Erm to be honest sister i think any type of bleeding from that area does invalidate your salah. Its best that you do ghusl before you pray.

Answer 4

uncleanliness is uncleanliness. any true God (like in the Holy Bible) would not be wishy washy about it.
Before starting the prayer, a person is required to pay due attention to certain aspects e.g. cleanliness of the body (Ghusal), ablution (Wudu), cleanliness of clothes and the place of prayer. Further study is recommended in order to understand all these aspects of salat.

Answer 5
