Hi Louie: My experience with progesterone testing and frozen implants is we keep doing progesterone testing until the number is in the high teens.? It is possible she really didn't ovulate the first time, and is having a split season.? You would have needed at least one more progesterone test to be sure she kept rising past 10.?? I would be interested in hearing what your repro vet has to say.

One of my Champion bitches is having weird seasons. Her seasons have been normal until 7 or so months ago. she came in season (normal season) went out for 4 or 5 days and came back in season again normal season. Didn't think much about it and just thought it was a freaky season. 7 months later she comes in season and we are going to breed her using frozen sperm (normal season)we thought. progesterone 1.8 then 5.3 then 10. ? (I forgot) the Vet. then did surgical implant which from the first day I saw blood to implant was 22 days. 4 or 5 days later she comes in season again, today smear was done and progesterone taken and is @ 5.6. A blood sample was sent to lab last week to A&M and waiting results. Doing another progesterone test tomorrow. Vet (reproduction specialist) best in this part of the country be back in town Monday. Not sure what is going on yet. Any one ever came across this situation or have any comments. Thank you. Th e list is great. ____Louie ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2008.
