Hi..Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
Human semen color can range from translucent milky white to slight yellowish tint. So translucent colour of semen is absolutely normal. If you ever see reddish or pinkish discoloration of semen, then you need to be concerned, otherwise not.
Translucent colour may be attributed to less sperm quantity in semen. This happens when you have masturbated/sex in last 12 hours or so.

Don't worry you are fine
Hope this information helps.
