Birth control tablet side effects

Hi, I have high androgen levels and high lh to fsh ratio with acne and facial hair, during my last visit doc prescribed me hormonal birth control tablet-to take it for 1 to 2 years(maxim 0.03mg/2mg ). It's been a week since started taking that tablet, i am feeling hungrier all the time and low energy , moody. Is it better to stop taking ? Is there anything other than birth control to balance my harmones and reverse pcos side effects.
