yes , women shouldnt be fasting for as many days as they are on their period. I have heard though that when you suspect it would be the last day but havnt taken your Purifying bath yet, you can fast as long as you take the bath before Zuhr prayer ..

I am not sure how true that is .. I hope someone will be able to clarify that for us.

I doubt that this is true. You have to be quite certain that you are completely out of periods before you start fasting. As you have to (and can) always make up the missed fasts, its better to be sure and completely miss the first/last questionable fast than to take risk and end up fasting on the day when you were not suppose to fast. In that case, you are not going to make up and you are left with on due fast in your account without you knowing.
