Hi
Generally penile discharge other than semen or urine is due to STD. However a STD is usually accompanied by rash or fever or burning in urine or swollen lympnodes. Did you have a complete STD panel done and also got your urine tested for pus cells.

The discharge could also be ‘smegma’. Small glands in the surface of the head of the penis produce cheesy white material (called smegma) that may accumulate under the foreskin in males who have not been circumcised. If the discharge is cheesy white, you need not worry. It could also be due to prostatitis or an infection under the foreskin of penis.  

I think you should discuss this with your doctor. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
