What is the ruling on the fluids that are discharged from me after repenting from masturbation? Are they mani (seminal fluid), madhi (prostatic fluid), or moisture secretions? What is the ruling on performing ghusl (ritual bath) and wudu' (ablution) due to them? Is it obligatory to inspect them, knowing that they hinder my prayer and cause me embarrassment?

This act is an error resulting from (whispers/obsessive thoughts), and one must turn away from it. The mentioned discharges are most likely pure vaginal moisture that nullifies ablution.
If you are unsure about the type of discharge (mani, madhi, or moisture), you may choose and assign it the ruling you wish.
Based on this, (ritual bath) is not required daily or for every prayer; rather, ablution is sufficient for these discharges.
One must be cautious not to give in to obsessive thoughts.
