Doubt Regarding Irregular Menstrual Cycle

Question

What is the ruling in case of doubt whether there is a period of abstention based on an old interval that was not annulled in an irregular cycle?

Answer

Hello 

According to Halacha, abstention on the day of the menstrual cycle is rabbinic, and therefore in any doubt, it is permitted. 

As in the case of a rabbinic doubt, we are lenient.
