Fungal infection

Question

Fungal infection

Asked for Female, 28 Years

My baby is 10months old and am breastfeeding. Gynecologist prescribed me to take Cerazette tablet as bleeding was not stopping due to pcos. I have been taking Cerazette from last 1month but my baby has got white spots on forehead. Pediatrian told that is fungal infection. My question is whether fungal infection which my baby got is due to Cerazette tablet or due to environmental changes. They also told not to use powder to baby as I have been using lot of powder to my baby. They gave antifungal cream to apply for 15days , fungal infection is reduced now. My another question is ..does fungal infection reoccur? Please advise.
