Informational: You can actually see the lining of the uterus (womb) on ultrasound so knowing where you are in your cycle helps to know what they should expect to see.

Multiple reasons: 1) to know if you could be pregnant 2) to know if you might still be bleeding 3) to be able to assess the thickness of your endometrium.
