A. Any bleed counts as a bleed. So bleeding for only two days is fine. You would need a blood estrogen level to know if it is low. Taking estrogen and progesterone will often prevent ovulation, not increase the chances of it. It will increase the chance of a bleed, but it is only an artificial bleed from the uterine lining shedding, not due to an ovulation.
