Dermatologist 's  Response
hi, welcome to HCM,
Cytomed tab in low dose is given to treat acne due to Polycystic ovarian syndrome. it lowers down the excess androgen hormone and cures the acne.
if you have PCOS in addition to cytomed apply Aziderm (azelaic acid) 10% gel
at night and benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel at day time.
wash your face with face wash containing 2% salicylic acid.
hope this is helpful.
thanks
