This study employed 30 dairy cows with repeat breeder. All samples of dairy cows were divided into two treatments, P1 using hCG at a dose of 100 IU given intramuscularly at the time of artificial insemination and P2 using hCG at a dose of 100 IU intramuscularly given five days after artificial insemination. The results were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Analysis using Chi-Square showed that all treatments caused pregnancy (100%). In summary, hCG injection at the time of artificial insemination and five days after artificial insemination in dairy cows experiencing repeat breeding can cause pregnancy.
