Vision usually stabilizes in your early to mid-twenties, but could not stabilize until you are close to 30. I would definitely go for another opinion. Try to make an appointment with an ophthalmologist or optometrist that someone else recommends highly or check online for ratings or opinions. I have bilateral astigmatism, but don't recall my prescription changing more than once a year.

get a second opinion even if you like your eye doctor it won't be wrong to do so. good luck dear
Can't help you with the astigmatism but I wore hard contacts for over 20 years before soft lenses came out and afterwards because you coudln't get soft lenses for any sort of astigmatism for a while. Now hard contacts aren't as easy to wear as soft as you are always aware of them and they do take time to wear in. I reckon at least 3 months to get up a decent wearing time although its very dependent on you. Also you do really have to wear every day to keep you wearing time up unlike soft where you can easily leave them out for a week.
Having said this I found my contacts fantastic and wouldn't have been without them for any price although it was my parents paying when I first had them it was about that sort of money. Whether it'll be worth it for you only you can answer. Where I found them wonderful was hill walking , sailing, diong sports and being outside. I felt really liberated not having something heavy stuck on my face all day. Is it worth it for you? You need to work out why you want them. Contacts of any variety do not wear well in front of computer screens for example and you dont' get much advantage from them.
