Hormonal mare


Question:
As of late, my mare has been coming into heat every 21 days, which seems a bit quick to me! She is a four and a half year old Anglo Arab. She has started to cry out when we are riding and keeps looking around for other horses. This only happens when she is on heat, so it is not a case of her working alone. Generally she couldn't care who she works with! This weekend she got very excited as I worked the gelding before her. She was running around the camp outside her stable and yelling the odds, even though he was out of her sight and quite a way away. When I got back to her she was all sweated up and in quite a state. Can you suggest anything for her, just to make her life more bearable each month.

Result:
Our product that we have had success with in similar situations is called Calm mix. We tried it out on a mare called Queen, who couldn't even be ridden whenever she came into season. It seemed to balance her hormones out a lot, because after a few days of Calm mix, she could be ridden during her season and was completely normal. She even ignored the love of her life, a gelding she is stabled with.

Follow up:
My mare is much much better. Actually she is at present on heat, and only mildly grumpy. At least she is manageable. I have been giving her about half a scoop all month which has helped with her general spookiness and started her on a full scoop the day before she was due to come into heat!! I am very impressed!
