Watery vaginal discharge may be caused by diseases or physical treatments. Recently undergoing local physical therapies on the cervix, such as laser or microwave treatment, can lead to significant exudation and result in vaginal discharge. It could also be due to certain medical conditions, such as fallopian tube cancer, vaginitis, or endometrial cancer, in which hormonal changes cause the discharge to become relatively thin. It is important to maintain external genital hygiene, frequently change sanitary pads, and prevent infection.
