Brief Answer:
Simple and common test
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for trusting us with your health concerns
Hysterosalpingography is a commonly performed test for checking the parenchyma of tubes which is of paramount importance in deciding further course of treatment and telling about the reasons for not able to conceive so far
It is slightly painful and is done via instilling a XXXXXXX inside your uterus and taking a few X-ray films
Generally done within 10-15 mins and no further pain or complications after an hour or so of the the procedure.
A painkiller is given generally and suffices for the pain usually.
It costs somewhere between 1500-3000 rupees depending on the facility where it is done
Just relax and pray it to be normal otherwise next step is either laparoscopy or test tube baby.
All the best
