Pain in the gonads or reproductive glands; a medical term for testicular or ovarian pain.
From gon- (Greek gonos 'seed, reproduction') + -algia (Greek algos 'pain'). The suffix -algia is common in medicine: neuralgia, myalgia, arthralgia all mean pain in different body parts.
Doctors use these -algia words like building blocks—once you know it means pain, you can guess what myalgia, cardialgia, or cephalgia refer to, making medical language surprisingly logical!
