For these concerns, effects of oxytocin injection on postpartum follicular dynamics, postpartum oestrous interval (PEI), oestrous length, the interval from onset of estrus to ovulation and blood progesterone (P4) were studied in Nili\u2010Ravi buffaloes. For this purpose, 23 animals within 1\u00a0week after calving were randomly divided into three groups: without oxytocin (CON;\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u00a0=\u00a07), 10 i.u. oxytocin (LOW;\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u00a0=\u00a08), 30 i.u. oxytocin \u2013 (HIGH;\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u00a0=\u00a08) and used to record the PEI for the study period of 154\u00a0days. At subsequent estrus, three buffaloes from each group (not served) were selected randomly to monitor two cycles for 6\u00a0weeks. Transrectal ultrasonography was performed to evaluate follicular and corpus luteum (CL) development, and blood sampling was done for progesterone (P4) analysis. These results revealed that postpartum oestrous interval (PEI) decreased significantly in oxytocin\u2010treated groups. The number of small, medium and total follicles on the left ovary was significantly higher in the HIGH group. However, an overall number of small and total follicles on both right and left ovaries was significantly higher in CON and HIGH groups. On the other hand, there was no difference in the number of follicles on the right ovary among all treatment groups. The same was true for the size of pre\u2010ovulatory follicles, CL, P4 concentrations and oestrous cycle length. The intervals from onset of estrus to ovulation and from standing estrus to ovulation were increased considerably in the HIGH group. It is concluded that exogenous oxytocin administration resulted in the shortening of PEI but triggered a delay in ovulation. Moreover, a higher dose of oxytocin could stimulate the growth of small, medium, and total follicles in postpartum Nili\u2010Ravi buffaloes.\n
