I agree that it has to do with the blood supply to the ovaries. My guess is, though, that all statistics create the pool effect to the "average age" of hormonal decline after simple hysterectomy. Thus, in the few patients where pedicle transection occurred close to the ovaries there was more likely chance of dysfunction. Also, women undergoing simple hysts are already a select group, more likely to have DUB, etc, possible due to hormonal alterations.

I suspect it knows because the anastamosis with the uterine artery isn't there anymore. However I will look for more info. Anyone else out there have references at their fingertips? John
