2 Estrus synchronization in goats Lionel J. Dawson Boren Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK Abstract Estrus synchronization allows breeding does in a short period of time by effectively using the bucks, or by performing artificial insemination (AI). Synchronization of the does will allow increased proportion of does becoming pregnant in a short period of time, uniform size of kids at weaning, take advantage of the niche in the market for meat during religious events and rising price trends in the market. In the past synchronization of estrus in goats has focused primarily on dairy goats to allow for optimal timing of milk production. Methods of synchronization have included techniques such as alteration of light patterns, manipulation of social interaction, buck exposure early in the breeding season and manipulating the estrous cycle by extending or shortening the luteal phase of the cycle. During the breeding season the opportunity to control the estrous cycle is greater during the luteal phase which is of longer in duration and is more responsive to manipulation. Keywords: Synchronization, estrous cycle, manipulation Introduction Goats are generally classified as a seasonally polyestrous or short day breeders in the U.S. The degree of seasonally varies among breeds and their locations (latitude). The annual reproductive cycle of goats in a temperate region can be divided into the breeding season or period, the nonbreeding season or physiologic anestrous period and the transitional period. The transitional period is between the nonbreeding and the breeding season. Estrus synchronization allows breeding does in a short period of time by effectively using the bucks, or improving the genetic make-up of the flock by performing AI. With the rapid increase in meat goats in the U.S., estrus synchronization has been used as an effective tool in the reproductive management of these herds. Synchronization early in the breeding season will allow an increased proportion of does becoming pregnant early, older and uniform size of kids at weaning, take advantage of the niche in the market during religious events and rising price trends in the market. In the past synchronization of estrus in goats has focused primarily on dairy goats to allow for optimal timing of milk production. Methods of synchronization have included techniques such as alteration of light patterns, manipulation of social interaction like buck exposure early in the breeding season and manipulating the estrous cycle by extending or shortening the luteal phase of the cycle. During the breeding season the opportunity to control the estrous cycle is greater during the luteal phase which is of longer in duration and is more responsive to manipulation. Strategies can be employed for synchronization, is to extend the luteal phase by supplying exogenous progesterone or to shorten this phase by prematurely regressing the existing corpus luteum (CL) by using prostaglandin. 1-7 Hormones have been used in goats to manipulate the estrous cycle, but none have been approved for use in goats in the U.S. Discussion Extending the luteal by supplying exogenous progesterone is best done by using controlled internal drug release devices (CIDR), intravaginal sponges and feed supplements. 2 Regressing or lysing the CL is best done by utilizing prostaglandin. Progesterone or progestagens products commonly used are CIDR s and sponges (Veramix, Repromap, Sincrocel, Cronolone and Chronogest). Shortening the luteal phase is best done by using dinoprost tromethamine and cloprostenol. 1-7 For better control or synchrony of estrus and ovulation, extending the luteal phase with progesterone, along with a gonadotropin (follicle stimulating hormone; FSH) and prostaglandin have been used. The gonadotropin commonly used is equine chorionic gonadotropin (ecg) because of its longer half-life. The drawback of using higher doses ecg may result in a larger number of anovulatory follicles Clinical Theriogenology Volume 5, Number 3 September
3 and repeated doses can cause declining fertility due to the buildup of antibodies against ecg. 7-8 Equine chorionic gonadotropin is not commercially available in the U.S. but a product containing ecg and human chronic gonadotropin (hcg) which has been labeled to be used in swine (PG 600; Intervet Inc, Merck Animal Health, Summit, NJ) for induction estrus in gilts has been tried and used in goats. The dosage of PG 600 utilized in does is 200 units of ecg units of hcg (1/2 dose) during the breeding season or 400 units of ecg units of hcg (full dose) during the non-breeding or off season. If ecg is used, the dose is 200 units of ecg during the breeding season and 400 units of ecg during the nonbreeding or off season. During the transitional period (late July to early September), buck effect is a powerful tool to induce estrus (Table1). Sudden introduction of previously isolated bucks will stimulate a surge of luteinizing hormone (LH) followed by ovulation and majority of the does exhibit estrus within hours. 1,3,9-11 Thirty to 60% of does will show estrus behavior and ovulate within 3-5 days or 7-12 days after introduction of the buck. Three peaks of estrus activity have been observed, after the introduction of the buck, 3-5 days, 7-12 days and 28 to 35 days after introduction to the buck. 9 This phenomenon of cycling in seven to 12 days is described as early luteal regression (ELR). 3,4,7-14 The current thinking is that ELR maybe due to lack of progesterone priming of the uterus during the anestrus and early transition periods. Estrogen produced by the follicles at that time will have a positive effect on the uterus. Estrogen increases the availability of oxytocin receptors leading to the release of endogenous prostaglandin and thereby lysing the CL. Does that were supplemented with progesterone in late-transition which was removed on the day the bucks were introduced had higher percentage showing estrus and reduced the number of short cycles. Buck effect and exogenous progesterone are methods commonly employed to induce estrus in the transition period and to prevent ELR (Table1) Out of season breeding in does could be done by using hormones or manipulating the photoperiod to hasten the onset of estrus. Out of season breeding will enable the producer to take their kid crop to market when prices are higher, have year round milk production in dairy animals and also increase the number of kids born to the doe during her lifetime. Hormones are commonly used effectively to synchronize estrus in this period. Incorporating FSH into the protocol is essential to stimulate follicular waves during the nonbreeding season or off season. Equine chorionic gonadotropin is commonly used in the U.S. PG 600 which contains ecg is available in the U.S. and has been used successfully used in goats (Table 2). Photoperiod manipulation is done by altering the day length. Decreasing day length will increase the levels of melatonin produced by the pineal gland. Melatonin production may influence the secretion of LH from the anterior pituitary gland and hasten cyclicity Melatonin will increase the pulsatile release of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), thereby increasing the frequencies of FSH and LH release. Increased levels of LH release will cause ovulation, and thus enabling doe to cycle regularly. Change in light exposure or decreasing day length requires at least days to induce a doe to cycle. Gradual change is not necessary; the amount of change that is perceived by the eye is important. A reduction of light is effective to trigger estrus activity in 30 to 60 days in a doe. 19,24,39,40 Exogenous melatonin can be administered to supplement endogenous release and thereby mimic short days associated with the breeding season. 19,24,39,40 Melatonin is more effective in advancing the breeding season than inducing or initiating it and is more effective if melatonin is given after the doe is exposed to long days. There are numerous protocols for synchronizing the estrous cycle in a doe have been used and described in the literature. Protocols 1 and 2 have been utilized by the author in various clinical trials at the American Institute for Goat Research at Langston University. For AI involving transcervical or laparoscopic insemination protocol 2 with timed AI has been used with good success. Dr. Nutti, a reproductive physiologist at Prairie View A&M, has utilized protocols 4 to 6 in conducting AI workshops in the U.S. and other countries where different pharmaceutical agents were not readily available. Prostaglandin by itself is used primarily during the breeding season to synchronize estrus in does. 271 Clinical Theriogenology Volume 5, Number 3 September 2013

With the availability of CIDRs in the U.S and approval for use in sheep, data have been collected by Iowa State University regarding approval for use in goats. Prostaglandin, PG 600, GnRH and CIDRs are not approved for use in goats. They have been used in an extra-label manner and the practitioner should be aware that under AMUDUCA regulations non-therapeutic extra-label use is not permitted. Thus regulatory guidance should be requested in use of these products in goats. References 1. Dawson LJ: Manipulating the estrous cycle in a doe. In: Youngquist RS, Threlfall WR, editors.
