Combined Pill at 38

I’m 38 and just started back on Microgynon after being off the pill for 10 years and having 2 children. I started taking them 14 days ago just 2 days before my period started. I’m still bleeding which I didn’t think would happen it’s only really light I’ve also had headaches more than normal. If I stop taking them now will the bleeding stop or will I continue to bleed due to taking a break?
