The aim of the present study was to investigate the endocrinology of the periestrus period and that of the subsequent estrous cycle in ewes synchronized during the breeding season. Animals were treated for 14 days with either MAP intravaginal sponges or subcutaneous progesterone implants, followed by administration of 500 IU PMSG at the time of withdrawal. The time to estrus occurrence following progestagen withdrawal differed significantly between groups (45.3 ± 2.7 h for the MAP and 21.5 ± 1.2 h for the implant group, P < 0.001). Estradiol levels around estrus did not differ between groups, but a significant difference was detected for the interval from peak estradiol to estrus, with a shorter interval for the implant group (26.7 ± 0.7 and 2.7 ± 0.9 h, P < 0.001). Progesterone implants shortened the interval from removal to LH surge, compared to the MAP group (31.2 ± 4.4 and 56.5 ± 3.6 h, respectively, P < 0.05). An earlier response was also observed for the interval from estradiol peak to LH peak in the implant group (12.1 ± 3.3 and 37 ± 2 h, respectively, P < 0.005), but no difference was observed for the interval from estrus to LH surge. Progesterone levels, particularly during the Days 6 to 10 of the subsequent estrous cycle were significantly higher (P < 0.05) in the implant group. It is concluded that the kind of progesterone treatment may affect the time of estrus and the LH peak as well as the progesterone levels of the subsequent cycle. © 2002 Elsevier Science Inc.
