Abstract: A cattle in her second parity was presented to the Veterinary Clinical Complex of the university with the history of repeat breeding since six months. The owner reported that the animal failed to conceive even after seven matings, including natural as well as artificial insemination. The activity, appetite and general body parmeters of the cow were normal. Per-vaginal and per-rectal examination of the animal revealed mild tone in the uterus and ovaries were surrounded by a cord like structure. Ultrasonography confirmed the presence of pyosalpinx associated with mild metritis. The culture and sensitivity testing expressed sensitivity of the pathogen to the chloramphenicol and cefoperazone. In addition to the general allopathic treatment, owner was advised to add homeopathic medicines (Aurum mur nat 200, Pyrogen 200, Echenacea 200, Hydrastis 200 and Silecea 200) and herbs like Murraya koenegii and Leptadenia reticulata in the treatment regimen. Meanwhile, the cattle started showing turbid vaginal discharge progressively clearing out over a period of one month of treatment. The owner was advised to provide the cow a sexual rest of two months. After two inseminations, the cattle showed non-return to estrus and detected pregnant when examined 2.5 months after mating.
