What Causes Severe Acne And Hair Loss After Taking Birth Control Pills?

Hi, I have been on birth control pills for 8 years. 4 months ago I decided to stop taking the pill. I have noticed acne and hair loss side effects which are making me want to start the pill again. If I start again will that be too much for my body to handle? Should my hormones be balanced after 4 months?
