Treatment of Bovine Reproductive Illnesses using Traditional Medicines: A Systematic Review
Abstract
Grazing animal creatures rose for milk, meat and various agricultural purposes are known as cattle. These animals are referred to as bovines. Bovine reproductive disorders comprise a range of illnesses that affect cattle's reproduction systems in both sexes. These diseases can have a major effect on the herd's overall fertility and reproductive health. Mastitis, endometritis, dystocia, retained placenta, metritis and other sexually transmitted disease are found in reproductively troubled cattle. This comprehensive review, which assesses a range of traditional medical approaches applied in multicultural contexts, addresses endometritis and infertility among other reproductive issues in cattle. Apart from assessing the effectiveness of these traditional treatments, the study provides an overview of their comparative analysis with antibiotics, which are used for disorders related to cow reproduction. Using conventional medical techniques as potential remedies, it explores a range of problems affecting cow reproduction. This study broadens its scope to include a detailed analysis of anestrus as well as how it is classified, uterine infection diagnosis techniques, the causes and management of cow mammary gland infections. This investigation seeks to provide important data to advance our knowledge of alternative approaches for managing the reproductive health of cows. It can influence the development of comprehensive, sustainable solutions to these pressing problems in livestock production.
