I've noticed a white substance forming on the shaft of my penis whenever I pull back the skin, and this has been happening for the last 6 months. Also, I've realized that the hair on my scrotum has turned yellow and become thicker. I suspect this could be trichomycosis pubis. Can someone help me figure out what's going on or suggest any solutions?
