Abstract

Objective : The purpose of this study is to report the clinical effect of herb medicine (Indongsoyeom-bang) and acupuncture therapy on Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome. Methods : 15 patients diagnosed with Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome were enrolled in this study. They were treated with herb medicine (Indongsoyeom-bang) and acupuncture therapy. To evaluate the therapeutic effect, before and after we measured Extract Prostatic Secretion (EPS), National Institutes of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIHCPSI) and International Prostatitis Symptom Score (IPSS). Result : After treatment WBC numeral index by EPS test and NIH-CPSI and IPSS decreased. Conclusion : Herb medicine (Indongsoyeom-bang) and acupuncture therapy are effective in treating Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome. Further study of mechanism and efficacy is needed.
