Early maturity, high fertility, short dry period/short service period and early post-partum conception are the factors of great economic values in dairy industry. In the present study 24 Holstein Friesian cows were selected. In these cows, antibiotic treatment and hormonal and herbal supplementations were given post-partum. Out of these, 6 cows were in control (Gr-I, without any treatment) group and 18 cows were under three treatment groups (Gr-II, Gr-III and Gr-IV).
