German term or phrase: Polyurie
A urologist is responding to the question "how many patients have these symptoms" (bladder problems) and says: "Das Problem, sag Ich mal, Direktion Polygenurie, Langdarm Inkontinenz ist haeufig der Harn dran."

This is a recording of a cell phone, so half of this may be wrong. The term, I think, is Polygenurie, but any other feedback would be appreciated. I looked up Polygenie, but it didn't seem to fit in the context of urology.
