I have been living in Tokyo for a few months now and wanted to know if there are any places where I can get a Std test done.
How much would they cost?
Would the national health insurance cover some costs?
Just been having a little too much fun and wanted to be safe.

This seems like a post about shopping, maybe your question is solved by [the wiki page](https://www.reddit.com/r/japanlife/wiki/shopping)?

A hospital or a clinic will be able to help you.
And save the humble brags for Monday.
Here’s to staying positive and testing negative. 🍻
Your local 内科 can swab your dick for you.
Had a very good experience at Private Care Clinic Tokyo in Shinjuku. Not covered by insurance but thorough, convenient and fast. You can check the results online and they speak English iirc.
The 保健所 do some free testing but they tend to only be open a few hours a month and depending on the area, they only test for a few diseases, so it doesn’t give you total peace of mind.
The combination of this post and your post on MPMD makes total sense.
Love it.
Be careful though – take care of your pau.
