Responsa for Niddah 41:24
זיל בתר רוב חתיכות ורוב חתיכות של (מיני) ארבעת מיני דמים הויין
unclean only where the object had the colour of one of the four kinds of blood,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Described in the Mishnah supra 19a as unclean. (Black and red which in the Mishnah are regarded as two different colours and, therefore, bring the total number of unclean colours to five, are here regarded as one colour since the former is but a deterioration of the latter). R. Judah holds that the shapeless object is but a piece of clotted blood. Hence, if its colour is that of unclean blood, the woman, though not in childbirth, must be deemed unclean as a menstruant.

Teshuvot Maharam
L has a wart in her vagina which bleeds during copulation and even when touched by the "examining rag". I am inclined to believe that L is ritually clean since we assume that her blood comes from the wart and not from the interior of the womb. During her regular period (of menstruation), if she definitely feels that the blood comes from the wart, she is ritually clean; otherwise she is unclean. At other times she is ritually clean even when she does not definitely feel that the blood comes from the wart. She can recognize the menses by a greater flow of blood than that which usually comes from the wart. At her menstruation period she must count the same number of days as hitherto. Moreover, knowing exactly where the wart is situated, she should be able to manipulate the "examining rag" in such a way as to discover whether there be present any menstrual blood.
