The Menstruation Lasting Less Than Three Days

Question
A 41-year-old woman has had irregular periods since she started menstruating, with her cycle lasting only three or four days each month, and it has continued this way until now, due to a problem with elevated prolactin levels. Now, her period lasts only two days. Is this considered a menstrual cycle?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: You are not considered to be menstruating if it is not three days; because the minimum duration of menstruation is three days and the maximum is ten days, and God knows best.
