A fever or elevated body temperature associated with or caused by milk production or lactation.
From Greek 'gala' (milk) + 'pyra' (fever, burning), a medical term describing febrile conditions related to lactation.
New mothers sometimes get fevers during lactation, and having a specific Greek-derived word for this condition helped doctors distinguish between lactation-related fevers and other infections like mastitis.
