Brief Answer:
Get vaginal swab culture sensitivity test done.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns today.
Do you have itching too? is there bad smell too?
There are two reasons for the discharge you have.
1. If you are doing heavy exercises/ hard worko or standing for long hours , due to pelvic congestion there can be increased vaginal discharge. This discharge has no bad smell and is not associated with itching. This discharge gradually resolves.

2. The discharge is not fungal. So it is not responding to Diflucan.

Consult your Gynecologist and get vaginal swab culture sensitivity done so that you can receive appropriate treatment.
I hope this helps.
If you have further concerns, I will be happy to answer.
