Testosterone and progesterone in peripheral plasma during the oestrous cycle of the mare

Abstract
Measurements every day or every other day showed that testosterone levels ranging from 15-70 pg/ml were higher at estrus in 4 of the 6 mares studied. In these 4 mares, another testosterone peak occurred 11-13 days before the next estrus either before (3 mares) or after the fall in progesterone levels.
