A new equine follicle-stimulating hormone (eFSH) product aids in superovulating mares, increasing follicle count for oocyte collection and embryo freezing. This readily available hormonal product offers benefits for fertility and advancing ovulation timing.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive endocrinology in equine medicine.
  • Veterinary gynecology and assisted reproductive technologies.

Background:

  • Equine follicle-stimulating hormone (eFSH) is now commercially available.
  • This product facilitates superovulation in mares, a key practice in equine reproduction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the historical context and primary applications of eFSH.
  • To highlight the benefits of eFSH in stimulating follicular development and ovulation in mares.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature and commercial product information.
  • Focus on the practical application of eFSH in veterinary practice.

Main Results:

  • Commercial eFSH provides a readily available option for superovulation.

  • Stimulating multiple follicles enhances oocyte collection and embryo freezing potential.
  • eFSH can improve fertility in subfertile mares and advance the first ovulation of the year.

    • Conclusions:

    • Commercial eFSH is a valuable tool for equine practitioners.
    • It offers significant advantages for reproductive efficiency and management in mares.
