Combining menopause hrt therapy with herbs?

kuddlemees asked:
Is it safe to combine hrt(estrace and progeston) prescribed by my doctor with an over the counter combination vitamin with menopause herbs that contain black kohosh and red clover. I have been on the hrt therapy with my MD for approx 2 weeks with very little change in my symptoms and thought I would ad this vitaman/herb combo with it.
I have researched the internet and am getting conflicting answers. Some say ok and others say no way.
Has anyone every done this or know if it is safe?
