The present investigation was carried out to study the effect of uterine lavage on reduction of uterine infection
and infertility in 24 repeat breeder crossbred cows. After treatment of these cows with either antibiotics or uterine
lavage or uterine lavage+antibiotics or control at estrus, the number of bacterial colony counts were not different
significantly among the groups but significant within the group. Same has resulted in a conception rate of 66.66,
66.66, 83.33 and 16.67%, respectively.
