  • Title: Some clinical observations on the effect of an implant of oestradiol benzoate in brood mares.
    Author: Azzie MA.
    Journal: J Reprod Fertil Suppl; 1975 Oct; (23):303-6. PubMed ID: 1060794.
    Abstract:
    The clinical effects and therapeutic value of a 500 mg implant of oestradiol benzoate was observed in thirty-nine Thoroughbred brood mares showing various abnormalities of the ovary and/or the reproductive tract. Sixteen similarly affected, untreated mares acted as controls. The implant was inserted during the early part of the normal anoestrous period and was removed 6 to 10 weeks later. The conception rate among the treated group (59%) during the onset of the ensuing breeding season was significantly higher (P less than 0-02) than that in the control group. The value of this form of treatment in septic endometritis and as an anabolic aid in cases of immaturity is also discussed.
