No - a gelded stallion is a stallion who has had his testicles removed surgically. Because the testicles are required to produce sperm, a gelded horse (usually referred to as a gelding) does not produce sperm and therefore cannot impregnate a mare.

What do you call a horse that is not gelded properly?
The term for a 'not quite gelded' gelding is 'Proud Cut' . This term was and still is used for horses that retain some of their testicular tissues which continue to produce testosterone and therefore cause the gelding to act like a stallion. The incidence of Proud Cut geldings is nearly zero in modern times as the gelding procedure has vastly improved over the years.
What is a 3yo h horse?
You could call it a MAre or Gelding... i think a gelding is a stallion that got his you-know-what's cut off.A 3 year old female foal is a filly,a male a colt.a 5 year old filly is called a mare, a 5 year old colt a stallion.
Is there anything to do so a mare won't come into heat?
The only reasonable way to "stop" a mare from going into heat, is to keep her with another mare, not a gelding or stallion. having a male around even if they are cut, will encourage the mares cycles to begin. But keeping her away from males may not stop it all together, but it will at least make them less severe.
Why would a gelding try to mount a mare?
There are several reasons for this. Most likely, the gelding was gelded late. This means that he would have the characteristics of a stallion, and possibly the mannerisms (mounting etc.). This could occur if the gelding has been gelded a few days ago, and not a few weeks. It takes about 3 weeks for the testosterone to flush out of his system after he's been castrated. Another possibility is that when he was castrated, the person doing the castrating didn't take out the spermatic sac that is above the testes, which would cause the gelding to act more like a stag or a stallion than a real gelding.

Does a stallion have to be a certain age to be cut or will they still be a proud cut horse at age 6?

How can a horse get injures while mating?
The stallion's hooves can cut the mare's back, the mare may kick out at the stallion, the mare may even colapse under the stallion's weight.
Can a gelding grow a second set of testicles if they have been gelded?
No. Once a horse has been "cut" or gelded, they cannot grow a new set of testicles. HOWEVER, sometimes when a horse is being gelded, the vet may not get BOTH testicles. (This seems to be quite common. I've known several horses that still had one testicle. Apparently, it is easy to miss one testicle when gelding...perhaps because both testicles had not "dropped" when the the horse was gelded) A horse with one testicle remaining is often referred to as a "jig". "Proud cut" is another term. Male horses with one testicle will continue to exhibit the tendencies and personality of a stallion. They will and CAN mate with (and impregnate) a female. It is important that the vet verify that they remove both testicles when gelding. A side note: Sometimes, even though a male has been gelded, they "don't get the memo" (LOL) and don't realize that they are no longer a stallion. They will continue to try to mate with females who are in season. This is especially true when a male horse has been gelded later in life.
