Treatment of cystic ovarian disease in cattle

ABSTRACT

Thirty-four infertile dairy Friesian cows suffering from ovarian cysts [30 cases with thin walled cysts and 4 cases with thick walled cysts] were used in this study. The animals were treated by a single i.v. dose of a vial Nymphalon [mixture of freeze-dried material containing chorionic gonadotrophin 3000 IU and progesterone 125 mg]. The percentage of responded animals in nymphomanc, irregular estrous and anestrous groups were 85.7%, 66.6% and 50%, respectively. The pregnancy rates were 77%, 83% and 50% in the three mentioned groups
