pubmed-article:944202 | pubmed:abstractText | Single subcutaneous injection of 1500 IU human chorionic gonadotropin or placebo injections were given at the time of insemination in lactating dairy and beef cows to determine their effects on rates of pregnancy. Pregnancy rates at first service in 161 control and 145 treated dairy cows were 52.8% and 44.8%, respectively. Similar rates for 136 control and 145 treated beef cows were 54.4% and 54.5%. Injections of human chorionic gonadotropin were not effective in stimulating conception rates in lactating dairy or beer cows under field conditions. | lld:pubmed |
