The study was conducted on 53 Simmental cows with subclinical endometritis, which was diagnosed by ultrasonographic examination. According to results, interval between treatment to pregnancy (46.4±6.2 vs. 40.0±6.0), interval from calving to pregnancy (129.4±9.0 vs. 125.0±13.1), and insemination number (3.2±0.3 vs. 3.1±0.5) after treatment were similar in the groups (P>0.05). In conclusion, intrauterine ozone treatment was observed as therapeutic as rifaximin and to be an alternative treatment approach in dairy cows with subclinical endometritis.
