Abstract:

 

The aim of this investigation was to determine the best method
for diagnosing pregnancy at different stages of gcstation.
The literature concerning the genital organs of the cow and the
techniques of rectal palpation and vaginal inspection are briefly reviewed (Chapter i).
The survey of material briefly describes the brecds an the number of animals uscd in this investigation (Table I).
500 cows were testcd in this study. Rectal examinations and vaginal inspections for advancing pregnancies were carricd out every
month. The cows were chosen from the State Farms (Çifteler, Konya,
Lalahan). The limits of pregnancies in these cows were between 32
days and 292 days.
Asymmetry and fluctuation as fdt by rectal palpation were the
first symptoms to be found in early pregnancies. In two of the six pregnancies diagnosed before the 45th day it was possible to detect these
symptoms. The earliest detection using these symptoms was on the
37th day.
