Abstract

Objectives: This study was designed to report the effect of HongYi pharmacopuncture on three cases of severe female urinary disorder. Method: Patients were treated with HongYi pharmacopuncture alone for 4 weeks. The effect of treatment was assessed through scores obtained using International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and International Consultation on Incontinence Modular Questionnaire-Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (ICIQ-FLUTS). Result: After treatment, urinary symptoms, and the scores of IPSS and ICIQ-FLUTS were improved in all of the patients. Conclusion: HongYi pharmacopuncture shows a significant beneficial effect on female urination disorder. Further well-designed, controlled studies and more cases are needed to define the effect of HongYi pharmacopuncture.
