(2) On Day 5 (Day = 0 day of estrus) of the estrous cycle, cows received P4-releasing intravaginal devices (PRID) to produce normal (2 PRIDs; n = 7) or subnormal (0.5 PRID; n = 6) concentrations of P4.
(3) Oestrus was synchronized in 8 cyclic heifers by progesterone treatment (PRID), after which the animals were monitored for one control cycle to measure the inter-oestrous interval.
(4) However, when oestradiol treatment was repeated on the 7th day of PRID treatment, none released LH.
(5) Calving rates of lactating cows were not affected by these factors but were affected by treatment; PMSG produced no significant effect after a 7-day PRID treatment (33% overall) but increased calving rates after 14-day PRID treatments (22% v 46% v 37% for 0, 375 and 750 IU respectively, P less than 0.10).
(6) 1, PRIDs were inserted for 14 days commencing on Day 3, 10 or 17 of the oestrous cycle and half the animals in each group received 5 mg oestradiol benzoate at PRID insertion.
(7) The clinical treatments administered included prostaglandin, gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH), progesterone (PRID) and the physical expression of ovarian structures.

(15) A progesterone-releasing intravaginal device (PRID) was inserted for 14 days into 10 lactating dairy cows at least 50 days after calving.
(16) The poorer calving performance of cows treated for 12 to 14 days was associated with relatively high peripheral levels of plasma progesterone at the time of the PRID removal, suggesting the presence at the end of treatment of residual secretory luteal tissue.
(17) The progesterone profiles of acyclic cows indicated that after treatment with 0.5 mg LH-RH or a progesterone-releasing intravaginal device (PRID) for 14 days 75% of animals apparently ovulated but the calving to conception interval was not significantly altered compared with that of untreated control cows.
(18) ; n = 9), progesterone-releasing intravaginal device (PRID; n = 9), or hysterectomy (Hyst.
