Hello,
These white splotches can be lichen sclerosis,pearly penile papules,fungal infections(itching is there) or vitiligo.

I sincerely suggest you to consult a dermatologist for this as without examination confirmation of a diagnosis is tough.

Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
