An ideal oestrous synchrony regimen results in synchronous oestrous onset irrespective of reproductive status or stage of oestrous cycle at initiation of treatment without adversely affecting pregnancy rates after breeding. However following a synchronisation regimen, variation in onset of oestrus may occur. This variation is dependent on timing of (CL) regression, stage of follicular growth and when present the duration of dominance of the ovulatory follicle. Many different treatment regimens may be used to attempt to synchronise oestrus. These include the use of a luteolytic agent...
