WHAT DOES POLYURIA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Polyuria

Polyuria is a condition usually defined as excessive or abnormally large production or passage of urine. Frequent urination is sometimes included by definition, but is nonetheless usually an accompanying symptom. Increased production and passage of urine may also be termed diuresis. Polyuria often appears in conjunction with polydipsia, though it is possible to have one without the other, and the latter may be a cause or an effect. Psychogenic polydipsia may lead to polyuria. Polyuria is physiologically normal in some circumstances, such as cold diuresis, altitude diuresis, and after drinking large amounts of fluids.

Definition of polyuria in the English dictionary
