Any staining found after the pipelle exam may be
attributed to trauma and does not invalidate the
clean days. You may omit
bedikot until the staining subsides but should make sure to perform one final
bedikah on day 7. If you are still staining on day 7, as long you performed daily
bedikot on days 1-3 of the clean days, you may delay your final
bedikah until day 9 if necessary. In that case, your days 3 and 9 would become your new days 1 and 7. If you didn’t perform any
bedikot beyond day 1, and you are unable to get an acceptable
bedikah on day 7, unfortunately you would have to restart your 7 clean days.
Going forward, we recommend reviewing the laws of
ketamim, since not all staining will render a woman
niddah. As long as you do not experience an actual flow (comparable to a period), you may take precautions against becoming
niddah from this staining by wearing colored underwear and waiting at least a few seconds (ideally 15 seconds) after urinating before wiping. See our page on
stains for more details.
