disharge from penis
about 2 weeks ago i noticed a clear and sometimes white discharge from my penis. The clear looks like semen and the white is milky and flakes up when dry. looks like c** almost. It happens daily and I dont have any pain or burning at all when urinating. I've only have one sex partner and as a married man i got very concerned. I went and got tested for HIV and other stds and the test all came back NEGATIVE.(SIGH) What could this be?
BTW, I dont know if its related but i saw my wife buy yeast infection medicine a couple days ago.

I agree with the workup this far, as infection is the most common cause for this symptom.
If the tests continue to be negative, I would investigate the prostate. A prostatic massage can be done, and any fluid should be sent for analysis and culture. If there continues to be discharge, a transrectal ultrasound can be done to rule out an abscess.
These options should be discussed with your urologist.
Followup with your personal physician is essential.
