Post-Trump Victory Spurs Surge in Emergency Contraceptive Demand

Following Donald Trump's election win, sales of emergency contraception and family planning services have dramatically increased amid fears of future reproductive rights restrictions.

Online retailers report a nearly 1,000% increase in sales of emergency contraceptive pills, with most orders being bulk purchases.
Planned Parenthood has seen a significant rise in requests for long-term contraceptive procedures, including a 760% increase in IUD insertions and a 1,200% increase in vasectomy inquiries.
The surge in demand is attributed to concerns over potential new restrictions on reproductive rights under Trump's presidency.
This trend mirrors public reactions observed after the Supreme Court overturned the federal right to abortion, a decision facilitated by Trump's previous judicial appointments.
Reproductive rights advocates fear further tightening of state-level abortion laws, which have already been significantly restricted in many areas.
