In small ruminants, laparotomy for ovarian exploration followed by oocyte collection has been progressively replaced by laparoscopic puncture of follicles, which has become an important method for obtaining oocytes in vivo. However, the superovulation protocols and collection frequency used for laparoscopic ovum pick-up (LOPU) in sheep still require further investigation. This study explored the factors influencing LOPU efficiency in sheep, including Controlled Internal Drug Release (CIDR) for estrus synchronization, FSH source and dose, and recovery intervals. The optimal superovulation protocol (using the CIDR device, a total of 16 mg of long-acting recombinant ovine FSH (LR-FSH) administered in two doses, and a one-month interval between LOPU sessions) was subsequently identified. Ovarian follicles were collected via LOPU from Hu sheep and Altay sheep for transcriptomic and metabolomic sequencing to explore interbreed differences in follicular development. The results indicated that LOPU efficiency was significantly higher in the CIDR group (
