Responsa for Niddah 31:16

בדקה ומצאת טמאה טמאה טהורה טהורה

it follows clearly that [the examination at] regular menstrual periods is only Rabbinical.

Teshuvot Maharam

The blood stains on the shirt and sheets of a leprous woman do not render her impure. For these stains came from her leprous skin rather than from her womb. A stain on her shirt does not render her impure even during her "period", if she examined herself.
