Brief Answer:
Not likely to be liquor.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
The mild amount of watery discharge that you are having that has reduced after antifungal treatment is not likely to be due to liquor leakage. The liquor once starts leaking will continue dribbling throughout the day till the deficit in the amniotic membranes is healed. It is more prominent while moving around. However a chemical and microscopic examination of the fluid will help in confirmation.
Hope my answer is helpful.
If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish you good health.
