Topic Dog Boards / Breeding / Idexx Results
- By spudulike Date 14.02.12 14:18 UTC
Hi, just had the result from my bitches progesterone test from Idexx. It's 11 n/mol today, and they think she should be 'ready' on friday. This is her 2nd test, last thursday (5 days ago) she was 1.6 n/mol. From your experiences does this seem about right? I'm just concerned that we're leaving it a bit late, BUT we're travelling half way across the country, and with having to take time off to get to the stud dog, I can't go several times

Here is the results chart;-

0-2  nmol/L           Baseline concentrations too early to estimate ovulation 
3 - 6 nmol /L        Minimum 2 days before ovulation expected however result of 3 - 4 nmol/L may persist for a week or longer before increasing. Earliiest estimating breeding 4 - 6 days but could be longer (re test needed)
7 - 12 nmol/L   Minimum 1 day before ovulation. Estimated window for breeding 3 - 5 days but could be longer  ( re test recommended) 
13 - 18 nmol/L   Ovulation impending or just occurred. Estimated breeding window 2 - 4 days  
19 - 31 nmol/L   Ovulation recently occurred. Estimated breeding window 1 - 3 days
32 - 64 nmol/L   Ova have matured, optimal potential for fertility.  Estimated breeding window  0 - 2 days
65 - 90 nmol/L   Ova have matured but aging, decreased potential for fertility.  Breed  at once
Above 90 nmol/L    Too late 

Personally I think I would re-test just to be on the safe side

So would I, one of my girls levels increase very rapidly and I have missed her in the past because of this.  Defo test again today so you get results tommorow.

She's been again for another test, so we'll get the results tomorrow. I hate waiting!!

I know the feeling, I'm just the same!
