Medical - Medical (general) / Urology/Oncology
Spanish term or phrase: FMN
The following appears in a medical report for a patient undergoing treatment for bladder cancer who has also been having urinary infections:
Actualmente se controla con entyum ocasional, FMN 3–4; FMD 1–2h pero por la tarde empieza cada 15 min con cierta dificultad miccional y dolor suprapúbica con vejiga llena.
Can anyone explain what FMN is intended to indicate?
Thanks.

Urination frequency at night
Explanation:
FMN stands for "frecuencia miccional nocturna" and FMD stands for "frecuencia miccional diurna".

I think "urination frequency at night" could be a good option in English.
