Program Summary

Veterinary Obstetrics and Reproductive Diseases is a course that focuses on the reproductive health of animals, covering both normal and abnormal reproductive processes. It includes the anatomy and physiology of the male and female reproductive systems, reproductive endocrinology, and the estrous cycle in different species. The course explores breeding management, artificial insemination, pregnancy diagnosis, and parturition, along with the care of newborn animals. It also delves into obstetric procedures, dystocia management, and reproductive technologies such as embryo transfer and in vitro fertilization. A significant portion is dedicated to reproductive diseases, including infections, hormonal disorders, congenital abnormalities, and infertility issues. Diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of these conditions are emphasized, integrating medical, surgical, and management approaches. The course combines theoretical knowledge with practical applications, often involving hands-on training in clinical settings to prepare students for real-world veterinary reproductive care.
