Total of 24 buffaloes were selected randomly and divided into four groups (six animals in each group) to observe the effect of Duraprogen at different dosages on resumption of cyclicity. Animals of group C (Control) were treated with normal saline (2 ml) on day 39, 43, 47 and 51 while those under Group T1, T2 and T3 were treated with Duraprogen (Progesterone, 250 mg) intramuscular on day 39. The animals of group T1 were further treated with Duraprogen (250 mg) on day 41, 43, 45, 47 and 49 (i.e., on alternate day). The animal of group T2 were further treated with Duraprogen (250 mg) on day 43, 47 and 51 (i.e., three day interval) while the animals of group T3 were further treated on day 46 (i.e., six day interval). Blood samples were collected at day 0, day 8 (after PGF2α treatment), day 39 (post mineral mixture treatment), on day 43, 47 and 51 or on the day of estrus. Lutalyse and mineral mixture treated buffaloes. The mean value of serum calcium, SGOT and SGPT on day 51/estrus did not differ significantly with anestrus (i.e., day 0), post Lutalyse and mineral mixture treated buffaloes. The resumption of cyclicity was highly significant in group T1 in which repeated dosages of Duraprogen (250 mg) i.e., on alternate days were administered. Duraprogen had significant effect in resuming estrus cyclicity in post-partum anestrus buffaloes, repeated dosages of Duraprogen i.e., 250 mg (1 ml) on alternate day had better effect than administered at three day interval or at six day interval.
