You have not told us what you have been treated with.  Were you treated for Trich with Metronidazole or Tinidazole?  If you weren't, you should go back and request this treatment as Trich is one cause of persistent NGU.  It should not take months for your discharge to go away, it's a sign that something isn't right.  My doctors tried to tell me my problem may be in my head, but when I continued to tell them I had discharge, that was the only thing they needed to hear to continue trying to get to the bottom of it, as they said discharge is a sure sign that there is still some infection.  3 months later and many antibiotics later, the discharge finally was finally stopped

keep going back monthly and get tested. if they see nothing unusual in your discharge, then you know it's not infectious and not a risk to your fertility.

you were treated, odds are this isn't a risk to your fertility at all.

continue to follow at the clinic monthly as needed.
