Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lactation specifically refers to the secretion of milk from the mammary glands, which occurs during breastfeeding. Mammary refers to the glands themselves, but not necessarily the act of breastfeeding. Menses refers to a woman's menstrual cycle, and perimetrium refers to the outer layer of the uterus.
