ABSTRACT

We administered Kampo medicine to 40 patients whose lower urinary tract symptoms worsened in winter and examined the changes in their lower urinary tract symptoms and coldness symptoms. The effectiveness was evaluated by International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Overactive Bladder Symptom score (OABSS),and the interview of coldness symptom. IPSS scores were significantly improved in 30 cases (75.0%), and OABSS scores were significantly improved in 26 cases (65.0%). The number of the night-time frequency of urination significantly decreased from 2.5 times to 2.0. The symptoms of coldness were improved in 21 of 29 cases (72.5%). Moreover, in the group of 21 cases whose coldness symptoms were improved total OABSS were significantly improved compared to the group of 8 cases with no change of coldness symptoms. Appropriate administration of Kampo medicine was considered to be one of the effective measures that could improve lower urinary tract symptoms due to cold stress as well as coldness symptoms.
