Brief Answer:
Semen analysis and HSG required

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns about infertility.

You need to undergo few basic tests :

1) HSG (Hysterosalpingogram) for yourself to assess your fallopian tubes patency.

2) Semen analysis of your husband.

These tests will identify if something is wrong and treat the same.
