here we go again

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'indicates it's a recurring problem' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'woman's sheep leave once more' is the wordplay.
'woman's' becomes 'her' (belonging to a woman).
'sheep' becomes 'ewe' (a ewe is a female sheep).
'leave' becomes 'go' (to go is to depart or leave).
'once more' becomes 'again' (synonyms).
'her'+'ewe'+'go'+'again'='HERE WE GO AGAIN'

'seeing' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
