The Iddah for a Woman who has Undergone a Complete or Partial Hysterectomy

A woman who has not reached the age of menopause, according to Islamic Sharia, (55 years according to the Hanafi school of thought) has undergone a hysterectomy, either total or partial. It is known that this situation is not addressed in the Jordanian Personal Status Law, so we cannot classify her as menopausal, young girl, woman experiencing menstruation on regular basis, or from among those who have menstruated once or twice and then their menstruation stopped. Should we rule that her Iddah* ends only when she reaches the age of 55, given the possibility of menstruation resuming? Or should we measure it based on a prepubescent girl who does not menstruate or an elderly woman whose menstruation has ceased, making her waiting period three months? This is especially since comparing her to a prepubescent girl is difficult due to the impossibility of seeing menstruation even once, and comparing her to an elderly woman contradicts the scholars' statement that the age of menopause is 55 years?
