Article Synopsis
- Endoscopic-assisted transcervical inseminations (TCIs) were studied from January 2018 to December 2021, involving 267 insemination cases with different types of semen (fresh, chilled, frozen-thawed).

Twenty-three light breed mares (aged 4-20 years) were exposed to a stallion and observed for signs of sexual receptivity.
