Understand the Problem
The question contains multiple-choice queries related to veterinary science, specifically focusing on aspects of dog reproduction, hormonal functions, and related conditions. It covers various topics including age for neutering, hormonal influences, tumors in canines, and factors affecting milk production.
Answer
Neutering: 3-4 months; Prostaglandin: None; Castration: Prevents tumors; Mammary tumors: Malignant; Castration effect: FSH; Luteotropic: Prolactin; Initiation hormone: PGFM; Tissue hormones: PGFM; Milk production: Progesterone, Estrogens, Prolactin, Oxytocin; Cholesterol: Estrogen, Progesterone.
The correct answers are: Neutering is used at 3-4 months of age for dogs (B). Prostaglandin is none of the above (D). Castration of a male dog can prevent prostatic tumors (A). Tumors of the mammary gland in bitches are mostly malignant (B). The effect of castration surgery in bitches is hormone dominance of FSH (A). The luteotropic factor in the queen pregnancy is prolactin (B). The most important hormone for initiation of parturition is PGFM (A). Tissue hormones include PGFM (A). The hormones required for milk production in the bitch are progesterone, estrogens, prolactin, oxytocin (A). Cholesterol is a source for the production of estrogen and progesterone (B).

More Information
Neutering early can prevent unwanted behaviors and some health issues in dogs. Prostaglandins are a group of lipid compounds, not a protein or steroid hormone. Castration reduces testosterone levels, minimizing prostate cancer risks. Mammary gland tumors are often malignant in older bitches.
Tips
A common mistake is neutering dogs too early, leading to developmental issues. Consult a vet for breed-specific guidelines.
