The most probable cause is that your horse is in estrus or heat. This happens naturally so if it's occurring for a few days on a regular basis it shouldn't be cause for too much concern. If it happens frequently for long periods of time you should contact your vet.

Your mare could have something slightly simple like a urinary tract infection, up to a more serious bladder infection. I'd get her vet checked and find out.

The most likely possibility is either a bladder infection or a urinary tract infection. Either way, you should bring her to a veterinarian as soon as possible. She needs to be on some form of antibiotics to combat the infection.
