I don't have any statistical studies on which to base such a guess and for your individual case such studies would be almost meaningless. It depends on many variables with the 2 most important being - is there something that predisposes the mammry gland to infection
- did the mastitis cause any permanant damage

Hello Wade, You caught me in the middle of writing a article on mastitis which I have just posted you will find it at Diseases of Horses » Reproductive Diseases » Problems During Pregnancy » Mastitis. It includes the information about prognosis you ask about. DrO
