Summary

Presently in Krasnodar region a course is taken on large dairy farms and dairy complexes of closed type. This technology creates a severe discomfort for productive animals, resulting in a high morbidity of breeding stock, especially in the early postpartum period.

Treatment of endometritis and mastitis in cows leads to the contamination of milk and meat with preparations: antibiotics, hormones and others, that cause toxicoses, allergic reactions and disbacterioses in humans. Most acceptable alternative to the use of currently widely applicable in the veterinary gynecology antimicrobial agents is the use of probiotics, as the most environmentally natural rivals of pathogenic and conditionally pathogenic agents, causing endometritis and mastitis in cows.

Probiotics prevent acute postpartum endometritis in 50-60% of treated animals. Multiplicity of treatments of probiotic-treated cows is at the level of positive control and was 1,7-2,2 times, respectively, while the number of days of infertility was also at the level of control and was 85,7-98,2 day.

Application of probiotics Monosporin and Prolam for the prevention of obstetric and gynecological pathology is the perspective direction requiring further research to identify optimum period of drug administration after parturition, well as their doses and multiplicity.

Key words: probiotics, Monosporin, Prolam, endometritis, obstetrics, gynecology, parturition, prophylaxis of endometritis.
