Brief Answer:
Yes it could be fungal infection.

Detailed Answer:
Good day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!

Yes i believe if the symptoms are sudden in onset then an infectious process is highly suspected. The fungal infection may have caused the infection in the urethra and the prostate and possibly the testicles. This would explain the symptoms you have felt the past few weeks. Fungal infection is not routinely tested and it is very to detect and grow in the laboratory.

What is good is that you are feeling better and this would equate to your healing process. I would suggest for you to drink plenty of fluids, vitamin c daily and a healthy lifestyle. I would ask you to refrain from any sexual activity and masturbation for 2 weeks to help with your healing.

Yours truly,

Brief Answer:
You are still in the healing process.

Detailed Answer:
Your symptoms are getting better but your still feeling a bit of discomfort. It would take time for the body to heal completely but you are slowly and surely getting there.

The whitish substance with your ejaculate could be semen or remnant of the jnfections like necrotic tissues that you are currently shedding. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
