It definitely sounds like too much progesterone to me. Also some women react badly to the progestogen in the green tabs (called norethisterone) - this is well known ( on here anyway!).
If you need to have contraception as well then have you thought of having a Mirena coil fitted? This will also work as the progestogen part of HRT so that you could add oestrogen and your lining would not thicken. Here is some basic info about it (Scroll down)
http://www.menopausematters.co.uk/to_progestogens.phpFor a more natural progestogen - there is only micronised progesterone (Utrogestan) which several of us on here take, as it has fewer side effects and is bio-identical, and you then take oestrogen separately. There is also info on this at the same link above. This wouldn't give you contraception though.
You may still get pms symptoms just before the period - usually after you stop the progesterone - which is what happens in the normal menstrual cycle, but at least it would not necessarily be for the whole two weeks!
Some women experience no bad side effects atll from the Mirena because it is delivered direct to the womb so there is less absoprtion into the body and it doesn;t have to go through the liver.
