Identify open animals early The IDEXX Bovine Pregnancy Test delivers reliable results, that support early, confident decisions.

Shorten calving/kidding intervals with safe, ongoing confirmation of pregnancy status at critical stages.

Maximize milk production and revenue by reducing open days, estimated to cost up to $5 per day.1

Save an estimated $291 per head2 by identifying and removing subfertile dairy cows early.

Improve overall herd health with simultaneous testing for Johne’s disease and bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV).

Get conclusive results—pregnancy-associated glycoproteins (PAGs) are only produced by cells that form the placental wall.

Ask your veterinarian for the IDEXX Bovine Pregnancy Test to improve reproductive performance on your farm.
