Question
My wife performed the check on the seventh day of her purity instead of in the morning, around two-thirty to three. It is important to note that she only got up at 11.
Answer
Hello,
Although ideally, a check should be done in the morning and another before sunset.
According to Halacha, one check on the seventh day is sufficient for the counting of clean days to be valid.
Therefore, she may immerse.

Shulchan Aruch, Yoreh De'ah, Siman 196, Se'if 4:
Each day of the seven days of counting, one should ideally check twice a day, once in the morning and once close to sunset, etc. Some say that one should check on the first day of the seven and on the seventh day, and one should not be lenient.
