Can Anesthesia Be Used During A HSG Scan?

I once had an HSG 2 years ago but other events overtook so not much was done, on my part. Now am ready to check my system and do the needful for pregnancy in a new hospital and am being requested to do another HSG bc the previous one might not be too useful. The last HSG was painful and I wana suggest the use of anaethesia but don t know if it s got any negative sides to it. Will appreciate your advise. Thank you.
