Description
Abdulrhman Alhaider and colleagues described in 2025, for the first time in full, how the corpus luteum changes in non-mated female dromedary camels across the follicular wave. This ovarian body makes progesterone after ovulation and drives the cycle. The team used ultrasound and Doppler flow measures plus blood tests.
Of twenty camels, only seven ovulated on their own. The corpus luteum grew to a peak size around day twelve, and its texture and color area rose at mid-maturation. Blood flow in the ovarian artery on the same side rose with these changes, while the other side stayed calm. Size tracked closely with color area and flow speed, giving vets markers of luteal activity.
