Brief Answer:
skin lightening cream

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
In PCOD there occurs a hormonal imbalance.
The androgens or male hormone become excess.
This leads to pigmentation as well as growth of facial hairs.
Insomnia can also be seen in this.
You are correct the facial puffiness is due to wysolone.
I just want to know why wysolone has been prescribed to you, It is not a standard therapy of PCOD.
Regarding treatment, you can use a skin lightening cream like aziderm.
This will take care of pigmentation.
For control of puffiness wysolone must be stopped. Till the time you are on wysolone this puffiness will be there, but dont worry, it will go off as soon as the medication is stopped.
I would also like to know whether you are taking any other medication for PCOD.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
Waiting for your response .
Thank you
