There is a reason two were prescribed. You need that much for trich. Tell your dr. You may need to take them all over again.

What happens if you finished your 7 day medication 2 days ago and is now having paper like discharge on your clitoris? Did the meds not work? Am I still infected?

Go to your GP and tell them, next time please follow the course of antibiotics correctly, not just for you own health but also because improper use of antibiotics contributes to the global issue of antibiotic resistance.
