Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the use of probiotics in relation to mastitis, as well as to  know the adequate dose of probiotic and the ideal week of gestation so that the desired effect appears. For  this, a systematic review has been carried out, with a search string and filters according to each of the  different bases. Also, an inverse search was performed to the root of the results obtained. Inclusion and  exclusion criteria have been applied in the selection of articles. Regarding the results and according to  current evidence, it can be said that the use of probiotics as an alternative treatment to human mastitis could be effective since there is a statistically significant difference in the reduction of bacterial load. Regarding the  dose and the ideal week of gestation for the administration of probiotics, different doses and weeks have
been determined that have taken effect; but without being able to specify problems they are the most  effective and ideal.
