Experiencing discharge while performing tawaaf

Q: I am going for umrah soon and also have an issue where very small amounts of discharge exit my private parts. How do I perform my umrah if this discharge might exit my private parts during tawaaf and so on. What shall I do if anything exits? Does my umrah not count? If any discharge ends up touching my Ihram, does my umrah not count? 

A: If you are not ma'zoor, then through the coming out of any fluid, your wudhu will break and you will need to renew your wudhu and then continue. Your umrah will be valid. However, if the fluid touches your ihraam towel, then you should wash that area.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
