Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated the prevalence of subclinical endometritis (SE) in cows that clinically recovered from clinical endometritis (CE) after treatments with either intrauterine cephapirin or PGFα, as well as self-healing.
- A total of 222 Polish Holstein Friesian cows were assessed, showing an average SE prevalence of 40.9% among those deemed clinically cured.
- The type of vaginal discharge influenced SE rates, with higher occurrences seen in cases associated with purulent discharge compared to mucopurulent discharge, especially in cows treated with cephapirin.
Previous studies have compared the effectiveness of dinoprost and cloprostenol in cows yielding conflicting results. The aim of our study was to evaluate the efficacy of single treatment with cloprostenol or dinoprost on estrus and reproductive performance in cows with unobserved estrus after service. The study was conducted over four years in two dairy herds of Polish Holstein Frisian cows under a herd health program with an average milk yield per cow over 9000 L.

One of the hormonal protocols is OvSynch, which enables artificial insemination (AI) to be performed at the precise optimum time without control of the ovaries and uterus. Use of such protocols in reproductive management allows oestrus cycles to be synchronised and cows to be effectively inseminated without oestrous detection, which is time-consuming and difficult in farms with numerous cows.
