“…In general terms, puberty can be defined as the process whereby animals become capable of reproducing themselves. 1 At puberty, plasma progesterone concentrations indicate cyclic ovarian activity before the first observed estrus. 2 Thus, puberty is defined as the first day that serum progesterone (determined in blood samples collected at weekly intervals) exceeds 1 ng/mL.…”

“…Despite the reduced ovarian and pituitary function described above, these two components of the hypothalamopituitary-ovarian axis are able to respond to exogenous hormones even during early prepubertal life (Robinson & Shelton, 1991). Indeed, fertile ovulations were induced in 1month-old prepubertal heifers by injecting exogenous gonadotropins, although the ovulatory response was greater in 5-month-old individuals (Seidel et al, 1971).…”

“…In prepubertal bovine females, follicular growth and therefore estrogen secretion are markedly lower than in cyclic heifers. This reduced ovarian function is accompanied by a reduced GnRH and LH pulsatile release (as reviewed by Kinder et al, 1987, andShelton, 1991). Hypophysial stalk transection resulted in complete cessation of LH release in 5-month-old heifers, which indicated that some hypothalamic GnRH was already been released before transection (Anderson et al, 1981).…”
