Oestradiol Restrictions. In 2008, the Australian dairy industry introduced a voluntary restriction on the use of oestradiol benzoate in lactating dairy cows. This occurred as a result of changes in export market regulations in which some countries banned the importation of dairy products that have been treated with oestrogen, including oestradiol. ACM requires that Suppliers adhere to this restriction. Oestradiol is permitted to be used for oestrus synchrony programs in non-lactating heifers, however it cannot be used in lactating cattle. Suppliers should discuss alternative options for the treatment of non-cycling cows with their veterinarian.
