Is It Safe To Suffer Excessive Bleeding From A Fibroid After Supracervical Hysterectomy?

I had a supracervical hysterectomy August of this year. I am 44 years old and had suffered from significant bleeding as a result of a massive fibroid. I had a mini period September and October but nothing at all for the past two months. Could this be a sign of ovarian failure?

bleeding after supracervical hysterectomy is due left over endometrial tissue above cervix. so its not sure that your ovaries are failing. ovarian failure take time after hysterectomy at least 3-4 yrs due to compromised blood flow to ovaries.
