It is not permissible to delay (ritual bath) from (state of ritual impurity) due to shyness if there is a fear of the time for prayer expiring. Shyness is not a legitimate Shar'i excuse for performing (dry ablution) when one is able to perform ghusl. The prayers that were performed with tayammum in this case must be repeated. As for fasting, it is valid.
