jmargaret - You are only just starting out, so if it does not settle utrogestan may not be for you? Provera is the alternative or a mirina. Unless you try either you will not know if they work for you. I cant take provera at all in any shape or form but utrogestan is ok for me. Yes I get down but because its on a cycle (but I use a long cycle) I know what to expect. Once its gone I'm fine. My alternative is to give up hrt altogether which would be akin to a death wish for me.
Unless you try a cycle and vaginally too for 3 months you will never know what will happen. Then after that you need to try another progesterone for 3 months and see what happens and so it goes on until you either give up or find the right thing that you can live with.
