is the test that checks for blocked tubes painful?

I'm on cd 6 now & about to finish my dose for my 2nd round w/clomid. If i don't get pregnant this month i think i want the doc to check & see if my tubes are blocked. How long did the test take & was it painful?

The HSG isn't bad at all...felt like it was like 2 minutes, I found the SHG way more extensive and alot more uncomfortable and i cramped for 4 days and spotted after!

hey there I had the test done about a year ago.  It isn't "painful" there is just pressure. It only took about 10 mins if that. I hope it goes well for you!
