I've noticed that the dark circles under my eyes have gotten worse and turned into black circles. I'm using Tyrowhite cream every night before bed, but I'm also worried because my hemoglobin level is quite low at 8.4gdl. Could these two things be related? What can I do about it?

I've recently stopped taking Diane 35, which I used for about 6 months to manage my acne. Now, I'm experiencing a lot of hair fall and I'm really concerned. Could this be a side effect of stopping the medication? How long should I expect this hair loss to continue? It's really worrying me.
