ABSTRACT:
A method encompasses the substantially continuous electrotransport delivery of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH), prologues, analogues, salts or mixtures thereof, preferably at a substantially constant rate, to a female mammal for the purpose of modifying its reproductive cycle. An electrotransport device substantially is suited for the continuous delivery of LHRH prologues, analogues, salts or mixtures thereof over an extended period of time to a mammal. The present technology may be successfully applied to the controlled breeding of mammals, such as thoroughbred race horses.
