Abstract

The fertility of dairy cattle has declined over the last 30 years. As a push for higher milk production has taken place, consideration of the negative impact on fertility has not been sufficiently addressed. As a result, it has become even more important for veterinarians to have a good understanding of normal reproduction processes in cattle, so that every cow has the best opportunity to reproduce successfully. This article aims to explore the early gestation period in dairy cattle, and some of the mechanisms of prolonged returns to oestrus when pregnancy is not established.
