Question
My wife is taking birth control pills that are not supposed to cause menstruation, and when she wiped in the bathroom, a clot of congealed blood came out. Does she need to observe seven clean days?
Answer
Shalom and blessings,
The definition of the blood she found is a 'stain'.
Therefore, if the size was 'like a gris' - meaning an area of blood approximately 19 mm in size [about the size of a two-shekel coin] - she is prohibited and must follow the entire purification process.
However, if the size was smaller, she is not prohibited.
