In the period prior to insemination, the concentration of lactic acid in the blood serum before and after adrenaline administration was determined in two groups of heifers. After the evaluation of the course of pregnancy, parturition, puerperium and further insemination, the animals were divided into groups of fertile animals and animals with fertility disorders. The fertile heifers had a higher level of lactic acid and higher body weight. The results are evaluated in relation to glycide metabolism and to the adaptability of the organism.
