Free STD tests for the morning after

Getting laid is one of the few forms of entertainment that — even when the summer concerts end — won’t hit you with ticket prices or drink minimums (although sometimes that helps). But because you somehow missed the thousands of free condoms around the city, and health class succeeded in scaring the crap out of you in high school, the biggest cost might be the time you spend Googling the difference between an ingrown hair and an STD sore. Better safe than sorry, so we put together a listing of all the free screenings (and pregnancy testing) centers in the borough. This way, you don’t have to wait until you donate blood to the Red Cross for your next HIV screening, and your sex life can resume.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: Brokelyn is a supporter of the NYC free condoms initiative. Use this listing to find a place near you where they’re available. Take a bunch, and use them so you won’t have to read this post too often.
