[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 909540, member: 12607"] Used Synovex-C 25 years ago, when it was the only implant on the market with label approval for heifers intended for retention as breeding replacements. Couldn't tell - but I didn't have scales - that it did anything more than Ralgro. I don't currently implant any heifer that I have any thoughts about keeping for breeding stock, but I'm not convinced that a single implant of Synovex-C or Ralgro really has any detrimental effect on future reproductive performance. Many folks recommend against it, but I don't think that scientific investigation showed any ill effects - and plenty of studies showed increased pelvic areas(easier calving?) in implanted heifers.
