Association Of Deslorelin And Sulpiride For Double Ovulations Induction In Mares

In order to improve reproductive efficiency in mares, an alternative is to increase the number of ovulations per cycle, which would lead to an increase in embryo recovery rates, consequently reducing the costs involved in embryo transfer programs [1]. Treatments to induce multiple ovulations in mares have been described by several authors, however, followed by reduced embryo recovery rates, since they decrease with the great number of ovulations [2-6], due to the fact related to the formation of a large clot in the ovulation fossa, which impairs the transport of oocytes to the oviduct after ovulation [6].
