Mini pill spotting, will it stop if I stop the pill

Advice Wanted

To put it in short: I've been celibate for 2 years, boyfriend flying across the world to see me, started mini pill for safe sex, got period 10 days ago and haven't stop bleeding since.

More about the pill and the bleeding: I started taking the mini pill on cycle day 10 so like mid cycle, didn't have spotting initially. Period came on schedule and seemed normal until after the normal amount of period days I just keep having light bleeding, going on for about 10 days now. I had those few placebo pill days now so I'm wondering if the chances of getting the bleeding to stop will be better if I stop the pill.

First of all, I know everyone's unique blah blah blah. Yes, my body won't likely react same as someone else's but this is stating the obvious so now that we got that out of the way, I am desperate! I just want to be able to have intimacy in this short time we have together, I thought safe sex would be cool but if I had to choose between that and no blood I'll pick no blood. So please, any tips any personal anecdotes on how to stop the bleeding.
