She should enter ihram, perform , tie a cloth around herself, and her ihram will be valid and correct. However, when she reaches Makkah, she should not circumambulate the Kaaba until she becomes pure, nor should she perform Sa'i until she becomes pure. But if she circumambulated while pure and then her menstruation began after the circumambulation, she should continue and perform Sa'i, shorten her hair, and complete her 'Umrah; because purity is not a condition for Sa'i."
