The potential consequences of this condition vary according to the timing and species involved.
The mare will present a considerable problem to: (1) clear the uterine infection;(2) mate again without reinfection or significant fluid accumulation; (3) and because of age-related lowered pregnancy rate and increased pregnancy loss rate, she has a reduced chance of becoming pregnant and carrying a live foal to term. Unless the mare has particular economic or sentimental value, the owner would be well advised to consider whether further attempts to get her in foal are worthwhile.
