General & Family Physician 's  Response
Thank you for your query
brown vaginal discharge could mean the onset of periods within a day or two.
However, onset of periods is usually expected from 3-7 days after your medication course is over.
If it is foul smelling or you have any itching or pain , an infection needs to be ruled out.
Hope this helps and you have a wonderful journey trying to conceive.
Wish you good health
