The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of post artificial insemination (AI) treatment with intravaginal progesterone device (P4 device) on conception rate, synchronization of returning estrus and plasma P4 concentration in Japanese Black cows. Nineteen cows were treated with DIB (1.0 g P4) from Day 12 to 19 (Day 0=day of the first AI), 27 cows were treated with a CIDR (1.9 g P4) from Day 12 to 19, and 33 cows were not treated after the first AI (control). Estrous behavior was daily examined between Day 20 and 25, and cows returning to estrus were inseminated (the second AI). On Day 19, plasma P4 concentration was not different among DIB, CIDR and control groups. There was no significant difference in conception rate after the first AI among three groups (DIB: 63.2%, CIDR: 66.7% and control: 72.7%). In non-pregnant cows, there was no significant difference in the proportion of cows showed returning estrus between Day 20 and 25 (DIB: 57.1%, CIDR: 22.2% and control: 44.4%), and day of returning estrus was not synchronized. The overall conception rate after the first and second AI was not different among the groups. In conclusion, post-AI treatment with intravaginal devices containing 1.0 and 1.9 g P4 from Day 12 to 19 neither increased plasma P4 concentration nor improved fertility and synchronization of the returning estrus in Japanese Black cows.

D011374 Progesterone The major progestational steroid that is secreted primarily by the CORPUS LUTEUM and the PLACENTA. Progesterone acts on the UTERUS, the MAMMARY GLANDS and the BRAIN. It is required in EMBRYO IMPLANTATION; PREGNANCY maintenance, and the development of mammary tissue for MILK production. Progesterone, converted from PREGNENOLONE, also serves as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of GONADAL STEROID HORMONES and adrenal CORTICOSTEROIDS.
