Patients with M. Asherman should be defined as patients with any diminishing of blood flow (secondary amenorrhoea or secondary hypomenorrhoe) after trauma, hypoxia or infection to the uterine cavity due to pregnancy related surgical procedure with the presence of intrauterine adhesions with a previous history of normal menstrual blood flow.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Incidence and severity of spontaneous recurrence of adhesions at 8-10 week second look hysteroscopy

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
We aim to answer the following secondary questions which strategy of prevention of spontaneous recurrence : * restores the normal menstrual blood flow better on shorter (3months) and long-term (6months and 1 year) assessed with a *Pictorial Blood Loss Assement* (PBAC) (Appendix4). * Has the best the pregnancy rate. This the hazard ratio for any ongoing pregnancy (in those patients willingly to conceive) after one year follow-up. During a follow up of 1 year the number and time to conceive will be recorded. The clinical as well as the ongoing pregnancies (defined as intra-uterine heart activity at 12 weeks gestation) and the course of the pregnancies will be recorded. * Needs the highest number of re-interventions (hysteroscopic adhesiolysis in the OR or outpatient clinic or adhesiolysis without hysteroscopy (dilatation) in outpatient clinic setting) during one year per patient will be closely monitored and recorded * Has the highest complications related to gel or IUD or any side-effect, such as intra uterine infection and discomfort of the patient.
