Abstract:	Prostaglandin treatment leading to luteolysis adversely affects embryo development. The effects are particularly harmful when pregnant mares are injected around 18 days after impregnation, which is after the embryo has fixed onto the uterus wall. Prostaglandin treatment is a useful technique for scientists studying natural pregnancy failure in horses.
