Stain on Toilet Paper

Question

A 48-year-old woman has only one clean week each month, since she has many stains for about two weeks, and then another week of the 7 clean days. This leaves just one week to be with her husband.The day before her immersion, supposed to be tomorrow, she saw on the toilet paper a clear discharge with some reddish-brown color inside. She threw away that tissue and immediately did a bedikah afterwards, which was clean.Can what she saw be disregarded, or does she need to count the 7 clean days all over again, in which case she won’t be able to go to the mikveh at all this month, since her next period will already begin?

Answer

Shalom uVracha,

A wiping that was only for general cleaning (and not as a bedikah), and the stain is smaller than a gris (like the size of a two-shekel coin), does not make her forbidden.
