Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?

Medalha is feminine because it derives from the Latin "metallum" (metal) via Old French "medaille," and the feminine form became standard in Portuguese, likely reinforced by the suffix "-a" which typically marks feminine nouns in Romance languages. The word's gender solidified through usage rather than following a strict etymological rule, making it essentially a grammatical convention inherited from French and Latin traditions.
