Question
What size of stain renders a woman impure?
Answer
There are several distinctions in this matter:
A. A woman who finds blood inside her body, whether through checking with a cloth or paper inserted in that place, etc., is impure with any amount of blood, even the smallest.
B. A woman who finds a stain on clothing is impure only with a stain the size of a 'gris' - slightly larger than the size of a shekel coin.
C. If she finds blood on her body, she is also impure only with a size of 'gris', but in such a case, even if she finds several stains, each of which is small, but together they are the size of a gris, she is impure. This is not the case with finding on clothing; even if she finds several stains, if each of them is not the size of a gris, she is pure.
