Ruling on Blood That Occurs During the Period of Purity

Question
My menstruation started from the 13th of Ramadan to the 23rd of Ramadan, and it was on time. It came again after 5 days, meaning on the 28th of Ramadan, and it has not stopped until now. What is the ruling on this, and is my prayer valid?
Answer

I say, and with God's success: What came in the second instance is considered blood of istihada (irregular bleeding) and not menstruation, and the prayer and fasting during it are valid; because the minimum period of purity between two menstruations is 15 days. And God knows best.
