Hsg?

Hi, I'm new here, my DH and I are just starting the fertility journey. My DH and I know the cause of our infertility, he had cancer when he was a teen and has no sperm. Still, my doctor wants me to do an HSG before we proceed with IUI with donor sperm. After reading the descriptions, I'd like to try IUI without the HSG for a while just to see if I get pregnant. Can anyone offer any guidance? What was your experience with HSG? What are the risks associated with it? All I'm finding on the internet keeps saying that you may feel "discomfort" and that you should be wary if you are allergic to shellfish, but I've also read that a bone marrow biopsy feels like a "sting" and that's one big bee if that's how they're describing it if you know what I mean. So any advice for a newbie?
