Following Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election, there has been a notable increase in sterilization procedures among American women and vasectomies among men, according to reports from various sources. The surge in these procedures, with vasectomy appointments up by 1,200%, IUDs by 760%, and implants by 350%, is attributed to fears over reproductive rights, healthcare access, and concerns about the future under Trump's administration. Planned Parenthood, which receives $300 million in federal funding, has seen this significant uptick in demand.
