Don't give her human painkillers. Call a vet.
You can manipulate a mare's estrus (heat) cycle several ways. Put the mare under lights early in the winter to fool her body into thinking it's spring a few weeks earlier. Give the mare a shot of Lutalyse. This chemical makes the mare cycle sooner than normal - usually about 3-5 days after the injection. Tease the mare. A mare that doesn't have normal cycles can sometimes be encouraged to come into estrus sooner with exposure to a stallion.
A mare goes into heat as part of her reproductive cycle. When a mare is in heat she can conceive a foal if she is bred. She cannot conceive if she is not in heat.
Mares go into estrus one a year, when they are bred they have the foal twelve months after, at which time they can be bred almost instantly after they give birth but I'd wait awhile beforeDuring the "natural" breeding season open mares will begin to cycle as temperatures rise and the photo period increases (spring). Initially they will go through a prolonged period of estrus called the transitional phase in which they may be receptive but willnot build a large follicle and ovulate. Once the first ovulation of the season occurs most mares will ovulate every 20 days unless they are covered by a stallion and become pregnant. There is some variation from mare to mare but most will be in heat for 5 or 6 days, once ovulation occurs the mare will remain in diestrus for approximately 14 days.Once a mare foals, she has a foaling heat that is designed to help the mare return tonormal breeding status. While a mare can be bred during this cycle her fertility is reduced.
A night mare is a bad or unplesant dream that accures in the human head/brain during sleep.
a broodmare is a female horse or pony used for breeding
it means the mare is in a bad mood, typically brought on by hormones during the heat cycle.

Generally some sweating does occur although it varies with the dose, the mare and where she is in her heat cycle.
Darkening and thickening of the urine. Mares will also "blink" the vulva more during a heat cycle.

No not normally as the mares heat cycle is affected by the amount of daylight not the temperature around her.

Most mares will have heat cycles throughout their lives. If she is difficult to manage during her cycle, you could consider getting her spayed if you never want to breed her. The operation involves the removal of the ovaries through a small incision in each flank. It is not common, but a mare that becomes aggressive during her oestrus is an ideal candidate. There are also drugs that may help. Talk to your vet. Although spaying does occasionally occur in mares, it is VERY dangerous to the mare and only recommended as a last resort, or if it could help a separate potentially fatal problem. False pregnancies are more commonly used to stop heat cycles, and are much safer for the mare. A small "pebble" is inserted into the uterus, and can prevent the mare from going into heat for about 6 months (and can then be re-inserted). There are also medications that prevent or limit the number of heat cycles a mare will go into. Similar medications can also limit the effects of the heat cycle on the mare if the horse has a tendency to be really hot during this time. If you are more concerned with the mares behavior during her heat cycle, various alternative techniques such as acupuncture, either on a regular basis, or in the form of an ear clip, can decrease how hot/hard to handle/ride the mare can get during her cycle.
Yes
No you dont have to.
es, as long as the mare and foal are not allergic, and there is a real need for this med.
