Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Permission was given for a menstruating woman to depart after performing the Tawaf al-Ifadah, and I had previously heard Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) say that a menstruating woman cannot depart. Then later I heard him say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had permitted menstruating women to depart without performing the Farewell Tawaf.
