Abstract: The purpose of this study for focus light and comparative of the histomorphometry and hormonal characterizes of uterus and ovary between female buffalo and goat, 10 uteri with ovaries (5 pregnant and 5 non-pregnant) from each group were used. According to the study, the endometrium, myometrium, as well as perimetrium make up the uterine wall. Goats' uterine lining has more folds than buffalo's, which have spherical dome-like caruncles within their endometrium. The ovary consists of cortex and medulla, the ovarian cortex are made up of three different types of follicles that pass through different stages of development: primary, secondary, and Graafian follicles. The medulla took extremely abundant blood vessels, including arteries, veins, and their branches as well as nerves. Given the correlation between hormone outflow and sexual behavior, it is plausible that men could use this process to assess female fertility. This will lessen the impact on the environment, boost the efficiency of animal food production, and help us better understand the fundamental processes required for successful implantation. The analysis's findings demonstrated a notable variation in the concentration of reproductive hormones across the various stages of reproduction; levels of these hormones vary between the non-pregnant and pregnant states. The levels of progesterone are low during non-pregnancy, but estrogen levels progressively rise throughout pregnancy, and estrogen levels generally rise during non-pregnancy and gradually decrease during pregnancy. The histopathological measures of the goats and buffalo's ovaries and uteri differed significantly. Compared to goats, buffalo had greater characteristics. Although they have different endometrial characteristics, the uterus of a buffalo and a goat has a similar fundamental layered structure. Nonetheless, the left ovary's follicle diameter was greater than the right in every study animal. According to the study's findings, the reproductive hormones and stages useful in triggering ovulation and follicular expansion, which in turn may raise the rate and yield of pregnancies
