ABSTRACT

 The aim of this review paper was to assess the treatment and prevention methods for ovarian cysts in dairy cattle. The first two months after calving are when dairy cows with ovarian cysts are most frequently seen. The development of large, persistent ovulatory follicles in the ovaries and the inability of a mature follicle to ovulate at the proper time throughout the estrous cycle are traits of these conditions. Although the precise cause of ovarian cysts is unknown, they are frequently linked to heredity, high milk production, age, the duration of lactation, body condition score, seasonality, and phytoestrogens. Using a combination of the patient's medical history, clinical symptoms, transrectal palpation, ultrasound, and plasma or milk progesterone assays, ovarian cysts in dairy cows are detected. . Ovarian cysts in dairy cattle resulted in economic losses due to an increase in the number of days open, an increase in the rate of infertility-related culling, high treatment expenses, and a longer calving interval. Ovarian cysts in dairy cows are a dangerous ailment that regularly impacts the reproductive ability of dairy cows, to sum up. Therefore, the main therapies for cystic ovarian disease in dairy cows are Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH), human chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG), and prostaglandin F2. Cystic ovarian illness can be avoided with careful genetic selection, the removal of bulls whose sire daughters have experienced the condition, and a healthy diet. In order to increase the fertility of dairy cows, it is important to remove bulls whose sire daughters suffer from cystic ovarian disease. Additionally, dairy farmers are required to take the cow to a vet clinic if the cow exhibits typical estrus activity and fails to become pregnant twice or more following insemination
