Coloured discharge after haidh

Q: I have a few questions regarding figuring out the end of my period.

For the last 10 years, I had been relying on the opinion that once there has been clear discharge/dryness towards the end of one's menses, whatever comes after that in terms of colored discharge should be ignored. I determined my habit according to this rule (when I say dryness once, I considered it the end of my period and ignored what came after).

Recently, I have been told that the colored discharge after menses is also considered menses (up to the 10 day mark) and one must make ghusl accordingly, multiple times when necessary. Is this the correct opinion?

If so, must I re-determine my habit according to this opinion or do I stick with my previous habit?

Lastly, since according to the first opinion, whatever comes after dryness is to be ignored, for the last 10 years I have been doing ghusl only once usually, and not repeating it following colored discharge afterwards. Do I have to make up all the prayers I did in this state for the last 10 years?

Also, the discharge that is after the established habit but before the 10 day mark, is this also menses?

Irregular bleeding

Q: If a woman got her haidh on the 10th of Feb and it ended on the 15th but it was not how she usually experiences her haidh. On the 12th day of her tuhur (28 of Feb), she began bleeding like her normal haidh. Which one will be considered as her haidh and what should she do?

Experiencing signs of haidh without seeing blood

Q: During the time of the month when a woman is expecting her period, she sees a small discharge of blood at night. She also feels what seems like the beginnings of period cramps. She assumes it is her period, doesn't pray isha, goes to sleep and wakes up in the morning, doesn't pray fajr. Later in that day, she goes to the bathroom and sees no blood, though she feels cramps. At this point does she have to pray? Does she have to make up the isha and fajr prayers she did not pray assuming she was on her period?

What if her she sees blood again later in the day?

Seeing a pinkish discharge before the days of haidh

Q: A woman spots pinkish discharge 5 days before her period date (she spotted the discharge on the 29th of November and she started bleeding on the 2nd of December) she does sometimes get her periods 3-4 days earlier, her normal habit is 10 days.

So my question is, should she count her Haidh from when she noticed the pinkish discharge or when she actually started bleeding?
