Abstract :
The breeding soundness assessment (BSE) is essential for stallion fertility and progeny quality. This article examines the BSE's holistic approach. The inspection begins with a thorough review of the stallion's reproductive history and identification. A detailed pedigree examination, breeding records, and reproductive concerns are reviewed. Optimal stallion fertility and high-quality progeny depend on the breeding soundness assessment (BSE). This article highlights BSE's holistic approach, which includes several important aspects. Starting with a thorough stallion reproductive history and precise identification is the analysis's foundation. This includes breeding records, reproductive issues, and pedigree evaluation. BSE entails a complete general physical examination of the stallion to determine its health and conformation. Genitalia and reproductive organs are then examined.

Sperm quantity, quality, and motility are assessed using advanced methods.
