[Estrus induction in the goat after pulsatile administration of LHFSHRH].
In this experiment we used nine goats to which we administered GnRH in fractioned doses at a pulse like rhythm in order to obtain follicular growth and oestrus. The average length of treatment was 5.5 days; the animals were injected with a daily amount of 0.05 mg of GnRH subdivided in three doses (0.017 mg each). All the 9 experimental goats came into oestrus and became pregnant. The GnRH treatment in fractioned and repeated daily doses proves a valid method to induce follicular growth and ovulation in anoestrus goats.
