Nidah Chart #11

Nidah Daf 63b

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF "VESES," HOW THEY ARE ESTABLISHED, AND THE SUB-CATEGORIES OF EACH TYPE
  (A)
TYPE OF VESES
(B)
EXAMPLE
1) Veses ha'Guf Sneezing, body-aches (Mishnah 63a)
2) Veses b'Ones, when the Ones does not directly cause the onset of the Veses (see TOSFOS DH Ochla) Eating garlic, onions or peppercorns
(Gemara 63b)
3) Veses b'Ones, when the Ones directly causes the onset of the Veses (ibid.) Jumping, physical activities(1)
(Gemara 11a)
4) Veses Haflagah (Intervals) Seeing blood on 1st of Nisan, 20th of Nisan, 9th of Iyar and 28th of Iyar. Each of the three intervals is 20 days. (Note that blood must be seen *4* times to create this Veses.)(2)
5) Veses ha'Chodesh (Calendar date) Seeing blood on 1st of Nisan, 1st of Iyar and 1st of Sivan. (Note that the intervals are not similar.)
6) Veses of the Days of the Week Seeing blood on Sunday, three weeks later on Sunday and three weeks later on Sunday. The day of the week fixes the Veses and therefore three times suffice to create a Veses. (RAMBAN 64a citing TOSFOS)
EACH OF THE ABOVE VESTOS CAN BE EXPRESSED IN A NUMBER OF WAYS:
  SUB-VESES EXPLANATION
a) l'Dilugin (Incremental) Where the Haflagah, calendar date or day of the week increases incrementally, e.g. Haflagos of 11, 12 and 13 days
b) l'Seirugin (Alternating) Where the Veses occurs every other time, e.g. every second Rosh Chodesh
c) l'Sha'ah Kevu'ah Where the Veses occurs at a certain time of day, e.g. eating garlic at sunrise (BEIS YOSEF, beginning of YD 189, citing the RA'AVAD in BA'ALEI HA'NEFESH)
d) Tziruf (combination) A Veses that is established by a combination of two factors (such as described in footnote #1)
==========
FOOTNOTES:
==========
(1) The Halachic ruling is that such a Veses must be coupled with another factor, such as the day of the week or month on which the Veses occurred, in order to establish a Veses (Shulchan Aruch YD 189:17).
(2) A Veses Haflagah occurs after a certain interval of *days*. However, according to the understanding of at least one Acharon (Chidushei Hafla'ah, beginning of YD 189), such a Veses can be established based on an interval of a set number of *hours* as well (such as a woman who sees blood every 600 hours).
