The study was designed to identify hormonal levels associated with dystocia due to cervical failure dilation in sheep and goats. Animals were divided into 4 groups: ewes: group 1 (study): 6 ewes suffering dystocia (failure cervical dilation), group 2 (control): 6 ewes with normal parturition. Goats: group 1 (study): 6 goats suffering dystocia (failure dilation), Group 2 (control): 6 goats with normal parturition in AL-Muthanna Governorate in 2023. Blood samples at two times: 1st time during the last period of pregnancy, 2nd time during the 1st stage of parturition. The study showed a decrease in the progesterone level (0.5±126 ng/ml) in ewes, (1.7±0.16 ng/ml) in goats (at p < 0.5) of the control groups in the 1st stage of labor, compared with the study groups (no decrease) in the progesterone level (2.11±117 ng/ml) in ewes, (2.13±0.10 ng/ml) in goats (at p < 0.5), during the 1st  stage of labor. The study showed a rise in the estrogen level (15.00±1.84 pg/ml) in ewes, (26.18±3.8 pg/ml) in goats (at p < 0.5) of control group in the 1st  stage of labor, compared with the study group (no rise) in the estrogen level (3.95±0.32 pg/ml) in ewes, (7.81±1.00 pg/ml) in goats (at p < 0.5) during the 1st  stage of labor. The study concluded that the concentration of progesterone and estrogen during the last days of pregnancy and 1st stage of labor plays a major role in cervix dilation and parturition in sheep and goats, so any defect causes a failure in the dilation and lead to dystocia.
