ABSTRACT
Objective:

This study reports on the effects of HongYi (red ant, or Formica rufa Linne) pharmacopuncture through three cases involving female patients with voiding difficulty.


Method:

We treated the three patients with HongYi pharmacopuncture and evaluated them using the international prostate symptom score (IPSS), which is used for measuring the severity of voiding difficulty.


Result:

After treatment, the IPSS showed improvement in each patient. The symptoms of voiding difficulty and other complaints also improved.

Conclusion:
Based on the three cases, HongYi pharmacopuncture may be a viable option for treating voiding difficulty among women.
Key words: HongYi (red ant, Formica rufa Linne) pharmacopuncture, voiding difficulty, dysuresia, international prostate symptom score (IPSS)
