Hi Momo
As Mary G has said the progestogens you took before were all synthetic and the Depoprovera is high dose - so may not be suitable for you. Also some progestogens (the ones derived from testosterone) can have androgenic effects ie the facial hair, acne etc.
Depending where you are in menopause you would start a cyclical HRT which gives a withdrawal bleed (for those who have not yet reached menopause ie have not yet been 12 months without a period) - and in any case it is best to start this way even if post-menopause so that you can see which progestogens you can tolerate.
It is a matter of preference and how well you absorb HRT with the different methods, but if you prefer a simple daily tablet - then Femoston would be the best one. The progestogen in this one (Dydrogesterone) is very similar to our own progesterone, and the oestrogen is estradiol. It has fewer side effects and is not androgenic.
Otherwise there are transdermal (through the skin) HRT types available. All the different kinds are listed under TREATMENTS/HRT PREPARATIONS above (GREEN BANNER) - and between us we have tried most of them!
Like Mary G I use micronised progesterone (Utrogestan), and along with this an oestrogen patch (Estradot) which suits me fine. If you started down this route ( separate oestrogen and prgoesterone), initially you would start with the licensed dose of hormones and see what sort of bleed you get. After a few cycles with the consent of your doc you might be able to reduce the progesterone dose (if you are intolerant to it - you might not be!).
I always got migraines on the withdrawal phase of the progesterone in the past, and sometimes when taking it - even when using "natural" progesterone - but still prefer to take the ones that are bio-identical to the hormones produced by our own bodies ie estradiol and progesterone.
Good luck and let us know what you decide and how you get on with the doc - if you have any more questions do ask again.
Hope this helps
