I've never been to Planned Parenthood, but I have gone to the free county clinic. And I think PP and county clinics kind of do things the same.
For me, they did a pay scale. Depending on how much you make, if you have a job and things like that. Normally, I've experienced if I didn't have a job, everything was free (birth control, exam, blood tests, etc.) At one point I was making $7/hr and working no more than 30 hours a week, and I only paid $8 for birth control (Depo Provera) and the exam itself was free. I currently have insurance and I only had to pay $10 for the visit, and I got blood work & my annual exam.
In short; they'll do a pay scale. For the most part, it should be free or relatively cheap.
But again, like I said, I've never been to Planned Parenthood. Don't shoot me for wrong information, lol.
