Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh
The iddat of Talaaq will only be completed when three menstrual cycles elapse, even if the time of them lasts longer than usual. (Hindiyyah vol.11 pg.195)
And Allah knows best

وَالْعِدَّةُ لِمَنْ لَمْ تَحِضْ لِصِغَرٍ أَوْ كِبَر أَوْ بَلَغَتْ بِالسِّنِّ وَلَمْ تَحِضْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْهُرٍ كَذَا فِي النُّقَايَةِ وَكَذَا لَوْ رَأَتْ دَمًا يَوْمًا ، ثُمَّ لَمْ تَرَ فَعِدَّتُهَا بِالشُّهُورِ هُوَ الصَّحِيحُ وَلَوْ رَأَتْ ثَلَاثَةً دَمًا ، ثُمَّ انْقَطَعَ فَعِدَّتُهَا بِالْحَيْضِ ، وَإِنْ طَالَ إلَى أَنْ تَيْأَسَ كَذَا فِي الْعَتَّابِيَّةِ
