Exploring the effects of second estrus synchronization and dietary flushing on the incidence of ovarian cysts in gilts by using exogenous gonadotropins

Estrus stimulation by exogenous gonadotropins (EG) in association with dietary flushing is an important tool for the improvement of gilt reproductive performance. However, there is evidence associating both flushing and EG with a disturbance in the endocrine balance that could lead to increased ovar...
