Products for mares in season

Products for mares in season - support that really works

Coming into season is a natural, recurring physiological cycle that involves major hormonal changes and clear behavioural signs in many mares. During this time, horses may become irritable, nervous, excitable and sometimes unpredictable to work with. Signs vary individually - some mares become lethargic, while others react impulsively to touch, refuse to cooperate or respond strongly to other horses. These behaviours do not reflect a difficult temperament, but are the body's natural response to hormonal changes affecting the nervous system and muscle tension.

Which products help mares during this time?

Modern supplementation can effectively ease the signs of being in season and improve comfort for both the mare and those working with her daily. Herbal and hormonally calming products are most commonly used to support reproductive balance and emotional stability. Their ingredients include extracts of chaste tree, valerian, lemon balm and chamomile, or magnesium - these soothe, relax and help maintain concentration during training. Supplements can be used seasonally or regularly, depending on the severity of signs and the horse's work.

What do we recommend at VETfactory?

The VETfactory range includes NAF Oestress - a proven herbal supplement supporting normal hormonal balance in mares. This advanced formula combines chaste tree, calming herbs and magnesium to support the natural oestrous cycle and ease its signs without strong hormonal agents. Ideal for nervous, excitable mares and those with difficulty concentrating at work.

What should you consider when choosing a supplement?

The product should be safe, free from prohibited substances and suited to the horse's individual needs - especially if the mare competes. Consistency, monitoring the cycle and timing administration correctly are very important. Some horses need only gentle support, while others require longer supplementation. A well-chosen product offers real help - both for the mare's body and for comfortable work with the horse.
