Brief Answer:
Can stop it

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for trusting health care magic.
Yes it will stop it most likely specially if you have lesser flow on day 3 of periods but then after leaving the tablets you will get your period once again and then there can be erratic spotting and irregular cycle for a couple of months so in case you don't have an issue with it then can take it.
Take care
