What does it mean if I have had an operative hysteroscopy but my periods still have not resumed?

Ashermans Online Community : FAQ
It is possible that you have some reformation of scarring in your cervix or uterus that is blocking your menstrual flow. The presence of any "new" scarring can be confirmed using an HSG or a sonohystogram. An additional hysteroscopy will usually remove these "fresh" adhesions without difficulty. The common school of thought is that these reformations are not, in actuality, "new" scarring but rather the regrowth of scarring that wasn't completely removed during the first surgery.

If my periods stop, does that always mean menopause?

Christine Paoletti ~ Women's Health & Wellness
Some women stop their periods and are not experiencing true menopause. Often periods stop but the ovaries do not stop functioning. Frequently the ovaries continue to produce estrogen but not enough to ovulate (produce an egg for fertilization) and hence not enough to produce a period. When this happens, there is no menstruation but true menopause has not occurred because the estrogen is still high.
