Can Gestational Age be Determined by Placentome Diameter, Placentome Blood Flow Pixel Area and Progesterone Concentration During Pregnancy in Kivircik Ewes?

The information obtained about the gestational age allows ewes to be grouped and fed with appropriate rations for pregnancy. The aims of this study are to evaluate the relationship between placentome diameter (PD), placentome blood flow pixel area (PBFPA) and progesterone (P4) concentrations during...

In the study, 50 singleton pregnant Kivircik ewes were used. The day that the sheep mated with the ram was considered as day 0 of pregnancy.

It was determined that P4 concentration measurements in sheep with unknown breeding time were the most useful parameter for determining the day of gestation, rather than PBFPA and PD, until day 96 of gestation in this study. However, while progesterone allowed for a more accurate determination of the gestational age up to day 96, this method is not yet successful in accurately determining the exact day of gestation beyond day 96 and until the end of pregnancy.Sinem Özlem ENGİNLERGamze EVKURAN DALAli Can ÇETİNAhmet SABUNCUKerem BAYKALUniversity of Kafkasarticlegestational ageplacentome diameterplacentome blood flow pixel areaprogesteronesheepVeterinary medicineSF600-1100ENKafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakultesi Dergisi, Vol 27, Iss 6, Pp 763-769 (2021)
