The Siderei Tahara (Y.D. 192:6) quotes an interesting question from the achronim. Perhaps in the days of Rav and Rav Nachman the chumrah of R' Zeirah to keep 7 clean days for even nidah, was not yet popular. Therefore, when Rav and R' Nachman called "who will be mine for a day", they were looking for women who were on their 7th day of nidah (deoraysa), so that even if they have blood from the chimud, they will still be able to go to the mikvah that night and be tahor (Any women who is not yet on her 7th day would be a problem since if she sees blood she will still need 7 days, but for someone on their 7th day of nidah there should not be a problem). So how can the gemara ask from the statement of Rava that Dam Chimud would require "7 clean days", that is only in the time of Rava which was after R' Zeirah that Chimud would require 7 clean days, but in the days of Rav and R' Nachman it would not require 7 clean days?
