Abstract

Intrauterine therapy with autologous plasma was evaluated for its therapeutic efficiency in cross bred Jersey cows with
endometritis. Eight cows with endometritis were given intrauterine infusion of 50 ml autologous plasma on day 1, 2 and 3 of oestrous
cycle considering day of estrus as day 0. The cows were evaluated in terms of physico-chemical characteristics of estrual mucus (viz.,
pH, nature of estrual mucus and white side test), histopathology of uterine biopsy and conception rate. The treated cows showed
improvement in all the above parameters mentioned and conception rate was 50%. Hence, the intrauterine autologous plasma
treatment recovers cross bred Jersey cows from endometritis.
