The number of abortions in the United States has increased since the Supreme Court overturned federal abortion protections under Roe v. Wade in June 2022, largely due to increased access to telemedicine prescriptions of the abortion pill mifepristone.

Nationwide, the average number of abortions per month was nearly 100,000 in the first quarter of 2024, according to the WeCount initiative from the Society of Family Planning. Approximately 20% of these abortions each month were facilitated by telehealth.
