The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of the ethanolic extracts of Neem, Garlic, Tulsi, and Turmeric compared with an antibiotic Ciprofloxacin in Metritis affected crossbred cows. The present study was conducted on 30 crossbred cows having the history of abnormal puerperium. The cows showing the presence of pus plaques in the cervico-vaginal discharge, 30 days postpartum were included in this study. All such cows were divided into five therapeutic groups A1 (Neem), A2 (Garlic), A3 (Tulsi) A4 (Turmeric) and A5 (Ciprofloxacin). The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated in terms of conception rate. The cows that conceived after treatment with Neem, Garlic, Tulsi, Turmeric extract and Ciprofloxacin up to 3rd insemination were 50.00, 33.33, 33.33, 50.00 and 83.33 percent, respectively.
