Current facts of endometritis diagnosis in dairy cows

In a decreasing order, the main three disorders that result in an increased percentage of dairy cow culling are hoof diseases, clinical mastitis and the puerperal pathologies of the genital sphere. The latter are mostly represented by placenta reten­tion, acute or chronic cervicitis, toxic acute metritis, cli­ni­cal metritis, clinical and subclinical endometritis. The repeat breeding syndrome is a difficult problem for prac­ti­tio­ners because endometritis are one of the causes of this syndrome. Often, cows suffering from endometrial in­flam­mation may have clinical signs and sometimes do not. It cannot be a key to success in endometritis diagnosis, but by bringing in better monitoring of the puerperium, and applying certain managerial and diagnostic mea­sures, we can achieve satisfying reproductive results in close correlation with nutrition and climatic factors.
