The combination of HRT menopause with herbs? Is it safe to combine HRT (Estrace and progeston) prescribed by my doctor with more of the vitamin combination with herbs that contain cons menopause kohosh black and red clover. I was on HRT with my MD about two weeks with very little change in my symptoms and thought I would ad this combo Vitaman herbs / her.
I researched the internet and I get conflicting answers. Some say ok and others say nothing.
Does anyone have any fact or whether it is safe?
I think you need to give more time for the hormone to be effective. You will not find a definitive answer when you searched and the reason is that very little research has been done to affect how you take herbal medicines. They now know St.John 's Wart is dangerous, they know other herbs that might prevent you take medication to be effective, so I advise you to wait a bit. That HRT first work for you, I advise you to wait another few months, maybe go back to your doctor and complain that HRT does not work (but after seeing that I have said) and see what he or she has to say. Do not mix anything you are unsure.
