Progesterone only pill and heavy periods

Hi, I’m 43 and started taking progesterone only pill cezarette 3 months ago for very heavy periods. The bleeding has become lighter but I am now having a period every 16/17 days instead of 26. Should I give it more time to get into my system? Has anybody else experienced more frequent periods?

Many thanks
