title: Experiences and problems associated with usage of prostaglandins in countries other than the United States.
abstract: The prostaglandins have entered into commercial use with few complaints of problems resulting from action of the drug. Disappointments in the results obtained from their use have stemmed mainly from a lack of understanding or a lack of appreciation of their limitations. Before full realization of their potential benefit as a tool to aid in breeding management is gained, considerable education of the veterinary profession, artificial insemination personnel, extension reproductive advisors, and animal owners must be accomplished.
