What is The Love Lab?

The Love Lab is a mobile cart stocked with external condoms, internal condoms, dental dams, water-based lubricant and silicone-based lubricant available to UC Davis students at no charge. It also provides pads and tampons, in addition to educational materials, buttons and stickers.

Where is The Love Lab located?

The Love Lab is located in the Health Education & Promotion (HEP) office on the first floor of the Cowell Building (North Wing) and is open during regular business hours. The Cowell Building is located across from Russell Fields, south of the International Center.

What if Health Education & Promotion (HEP) is closed?

If HEP is closed, you can:

  • Go to the Main Entrance of the Student Health & Wellness Center and ask staff for a pre-made Love Lab bag. Each pre-made bag contains 10 external condoms and 5 lube packets. Dental dams and internal condoms are available on request.
  • Check out the UC Davis Sexcess Map to find a location where you can purchase them or pick them up for free on and around campus. Please be sure to contact the location first to verify the information on the map, since it is updated annually and there have been inevitable changes due to COVID-19.
