She came back on courts after eight months in November in a couple of ITF tournaments, yet with poor results. By the end of the year she was ranked No. 233.
2013: Slowly climbing back
After making semifinals and then becoming winner in two ITF tournaments in Antalya, Alexandra returned to the WTA Tour with a protected ranking in Indian Wells, and defeated 6–4, 6–4 qualifier Michelle Larcher de Brito, before losing in the second round, 0–6, 6–4, 3–6 to 32nd seeded Peng Shuai. Next week, in Miami, she lost her opener to Anabel Medina Garrigues.
She received a wildcard for the qualifying tournament in Madrid, and she did qualify, but lost 5–7, 2–6 to eventual finalist Maria Sharapova in the first round. Still as a qualifier in Palermo, she had to retire in the first round at 1–5 in the first set with Lourdes Domínguez Lino due to right toe injury.
In Båstad, she started better, defeating Caroline Garcia in two sets, but she then lost to Virginie Razzano 6–3, 0–6, 4–6 in the second round. In Toronto, she had to play the qualifying matches again, and she qualified for the first round, where she lost to Magdaléna Rybáriková in straight sets. In Cincinnati, she did not manage to qualify for the main draw, losing again to Sofia Arvidsson in the second qualifying round.
With a protected ranking she received an entrance directly in the first round at the US Open, and first she defeated Varvara Lepchenko in a tough three-setter, before losing 2–6, 1–6 to 13th seeded Ana Ivanovic.
Before playing some smaller ITF tournaments, she ended her WTA Tour in Seoul, where she won in straight sets against wildcard Han Sung-hee, before losing in the second round to Lara Arruabarrena in three sets.
At the end of the year, Alexandra was ranked 164th in the WTA rankings.
2014: Return to top 100
After inconsistent results on the WTA Tour, Dulgheru did very well in ITF tournaments, winning in Marseille and Dubai, and making semifinals in Campinas. The points she gathered made her climb up to No. 83 in the rankings by the end of year.
2015: Finalist in Kuala Lumpur and top 50 again
In her first tournament of the year, she lost the opener in Shenzhen to Zheng Saisai. In Sydney, she lost in the second qualifying round to Kristina Mladenovic 3–6, 2–6. At the Australian Open, she entered directly into the main draw but lost in the first round to Jarmila Gajdošová, 3–6, 4–6.
In February in Dubai, she reached only the second qualifying round, where she lost to Mirjana Lučić-Baroni in three sets. In Doha, she qualified to the main draw by defeating Gabriela Dabrowski, Jarmila Gajdošová and Zheng Saisai, and she made a big surprise by beating Alizé Cornet in the main draw, but then she had to retire while playing in the second round with Caroline Wozniacki at 1–6, 0–3, due to upper respiratory tract infection.
She recovered soon and made it to her third WTA Tour final of the career in Kuala Lumpur, after beating three seeds in four matches on the way: seed No. 2 Sabine Lisicki 6–4, 7–5 in the first round, Duan Yingying 6–4, 6–1 in the second, seed No. 8 Julia Görges 7–6, 7–5 in the quarterfinals, and seed No. 4 Gajdošová in a long three-setter (5–7, 7–5, 7–6) in the semifinals. She lost the final to top-seed and world No. 5, Caroline Wozniacki, in three sets. This brought her to be 72nd in the WTA rankings. Following this performance she entered the Miami Open and qualified for the event but lost in the first round to Elena Vesnina.
Dulgheru began her clay-court season in Charleston where she again lost in the first round to Ajla Tomljanovic. She then played for Romania at the 2015 Fed Cup World Group Play-offs and won both matches against Françoise Abanda and world No. 7, Eugenie Bouchard. Dulgheru then received a wildcard for the Madrid Open but retired in the third set against former French Open champion Ana Ivanovic after taking the first set.
Dulgheru had another great tournament at the Premier 5 Italian Open. She qualified for the event and defeated Misaki Doi, 12th seed Lucie Šafářová and eighth seed Ekaterina Makarova (her fourth career top-ten win). She lost to world No. 2, Simona Halep, in the quarterfinals but her performance brought her back into top 50.
