I am Dr Ramadevi wani. I will be answering your concerns.Since your period usually lasts for 6 days, there is a small possibility  that the 2 day period you had  is implantation bleeding. Just get a pregnancy test done.It would have been nice if you had provided me some more information like your age, BMI, duration of marriage, regularity of menstrual cycles etc.The ultrasound report is perfectly normal.Among couples trying for pregnancy, 80% of them conceive in the first year and 90% by the end of second year. So don't be worried. You will conceive.If it is more than two years of trying, then consult doctor and get baseline hormone tests and HSG for tubal patency for you and semen analysis for your husband done.  The tests results will help in planning the treatment.To increase your chances of conception maintain normal BMI, quit smoking ( if you're a smoker) and have intercourse at least three times in a week.Take a tablet of folic acid daily.I hope this is helpful.If you have any further concerns do contact me through Healthcare Magic.Best wishes,Dr Rama
