Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

A tubal filling and spillage signifies that the tube is patent and open on that side. In your case the tube on the right side is open and clear. The same cannot be said about the left side. For a pregnancy even a single tube being patent is enough so you can proceed with further treatment to get pregnant.
