Abstract
An experiment involving 36 Indian water buffalo (Surti breed) heifers in four groups was conducted in order to observe the IUD-mediated effect on uterine histology. In three of these groups, an IUD was placed into the uterine horn adjacent to the side of ovulation, opposite to the side of ovulation, and in both uterine horns. These three groups were compared with a sham-operated control group. Heifers were slaughtered 30 hours after the expression of the second or subsequent estrus. Fifteen histological characteristics were quantitated from the uterine layers. The data tend to suggest an estrogen-like uterine response in the presence of an IUD.
