TREATMENT.—Give fifteen drops of G.G., three times per day, or if
urinary irritation is suspected use the H.H. instead. He should also
have good food and plenty of regular exercise. If unable to give him
exercise under saddle, he may be turned into a large pasture with
pregnant mares.
Weak or Deficient Sexual Vigor; Impotence in Stallions
It not unfrequently happens that stallions of even good form and breed,
and not deficient from inherited weakness or vice become uncertain or
partially unfitted for foal-getting. This must of necessity arise late
in life from failing vitality, or deficient natural strength. But it not
unfrequently happens as a result of too early severe use, a drain put
upon the young at a time when nature was still building up and hardening
tissue, and when the over-drain made upon the green and yet unhardened
sire, was more than the nutrition could repair. And it is again liable
to happen from excessive use during the healthy, vigorous age of life,
and the more so, if coupled with insufficient proper nourishment.
Any or all of these causes may render a stallion uncertain, and so
diminish his value and the relative value of his services. It becomes
important to know what treatment will restore the feeble and uncertain,
and will preserve and arrest the decay, as well as restore these waning
powers.
In order to restore and invigorate the deficient or waning powers, and
to sustain them under severe tax, or upon the decline life, the J.K.,
may be given in confidence that it will sustain, restore and keep in
vigor the natural virile powers.
In cases, with only some decline in vigor, a dose of fifteen drops of
J.K., given two or three times per week is sufficient. When the want of
vigor is more decided, a dose, two or even three times per day may be
given.
Failure to come in Heat—Sterility
Failure to breed in the mare may occur in two different forms—first
impotence, in which the mare fails to come in heat, and second, true
sterility, in which, although she came in heat and was bred the service
proved unfruitful.
The first of these cases may be due to some malformation of the sexual
organs in which case it is incurable; but it is more often due to
insufficient or over-feed, or lack of exercise, or over-work, or some
depressing disease.
TREATMENT.—Correct the exercise and feeding, and give G.G., every night
for a week, or, if the case is urgent, a dose morning and night, and
then a dose daily until the result is manifest.
TRUE STERILITY may also be caused by malformations and be incurable, but
is more often caused by other things such as a catarrhal condition of
the vagina—Leucorrhea or too ardent heat, or insufficient food, or
debility from disease.
