Help with understanding process for testing and referral

My husband and I have been ttc for a year, we are both 37. We went to our GP in Feb, my husband was referred for SA and the GP ordered CD 1-5 blood test for me. We were also referred to Care Fertility clinic, we are based in W Yorkshire. We had our first consultation with Care recently and I was told that I should get a HyCoSy done but that I would have to pay for it privately as my husband is on a visa here. For the record, I’m a British citizen. I am confused about this process as I thought for investigation, I would be referred to a gynaecologist at the hospital, rather than straight to the fertility clinic. We are also not sure if we would want to pursue IVF at all, at this stage I just want to know if there are any problems that are stopping us from conceiving. If anyone has any insight into this, I would find it v helpful - thanks.
