I had bv and did 5 days of metro gel for it. now 3 days after finishing i'm having white thick discharge, no other sxs. should i do otc for yeast?

No: The discharge is probably normal. If you develop any related itching, redness, irritation, etc, then a medication for yeast infection would be more appropriate.
