Hi.
Perhaps the sleep disturbances will subside with time? It has only been 2 weeks since your hormone change. Maybe your system will adjust.
I can appreciate your fear of addiction, but I don't think you are any more apt to become addicted to a hypnotic benzodiazepine than Ambien. They actually work on the same receptor. If choppy sleep is the issue, a mild benzo like Restoril might serve the purpose.
I would look at Remeron first as a non-benzo alternative. Doxepin, trimipramine, trazodone, and amitriptyline are other alternatives.
Sad Panda and King Vultan are probably better able than I to help you decide which to choose.
Good luck.
