A total of 660 female genital tracts of goats were collected randomly from various slaughter houses as well as from CIRG post-mortem house regardless of breed and age (3 months to 8 years old) of the animals. Out of total 660 samples collected and examined, 154 (23.32%) revealed different types of pathological conditions. Highest occurrence of pathological conditions was observed in the uterus (53.24%), followed by those in the ovary (25.97%), cervix (11.03%), fallopian tubes (5.19%) and vagina (4.54%). Endometritis (37/154; 24.02%) was the most common pathological lesion followed by ovarian cyst (22/154; 14.28%).
