Abstract:	This study was aimed to know the extent of infertility problem and to isolate, identify the specific and nonspecific agents causing infertility in crossbred and exotic cattle in Nepal. The treatment responses of antiseptic and antibiotics in repeat breeders and aborted cases have also been evaluated. One hundred and eighteen serum samples collected from the repeat breeder and aborted cows were subjected for antibody detection of Brucella abortus, Leptospira hardjo, Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis/Infectous Pustular Vulvovaginitis virus and Chlamydia pscittaci. 0.8% samples were positive for the presence of antibody of brucellosis, 9.3% for leptospirosis and 50.8% for infectious bovine rhinotracheitis/Jnfectious pustular vulvovaginitis and no any sample positive for chlamydiosis. The cervical and uterine samples tested for Trichomonads microscopically, none of the sample was found positive. Escherichia coli, Bacillus spp and Staphylococcus aureus were major bacterial species isolated from the cows having cervicitis and endometritis. The treatment response of the cows with pathological condition of endometritis, and/or cervicitis was found promising. Out of 28 cases treated, 19 (67.8%) cows were found to be pregnant at follow up after 5 months. Therefore the treatment therapy applied in this study can be a promising therapy for the treatment of cases with infectious form of infertility particularly infertility due to microbial origin.
