Hi,
What is your age and BMI?

This ultrasound report is good. You have one good dominant follicle in right ovary. The follicle grows around 1-1.5 mm each day. So in all probability you should be ovulating in 2-3 days time. The endometrial thickness is also good for this day of cycle.
Considering that other factors are normal (patent fallopian tubes, normal semen analysis, normal body weight etc) chances of conception with clomid are 40% and about 29% will go on to have a live birth.
Rarely the dominant follicle does not rupture and ovulate. So it is important to have an ultrasound done after four days to make sure that ovulation occurred. The other option is to take Injection HCG to initiate ovulation.
Take one tablet of folic acid daily.

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.

If you have any further concerns do contact me through Healthcare Magic.
