CDC began abortion surveillance in 1969 to document the number and characteristics of women obtaining legal induced abortions. Many states and reporting areas (New York City and the District of Columbia) conduct abortion surveillance. CDC compiles the information these reporting areas collect to produce national estimates. CDC’s surveillance system compiles information on legal induced abortions only. For the purpose of surveillance, a legal induced abortion is defined as an intervention performed by a licensed clinician (e.g., a physician, nurse-midwife, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant) that is intended to terminate an ongoing pregnancy. Most states and reporting areas that collect abortion data now report if an abortion was medical or surgical. Medical abortions are legal procedures that use medications instead of surgery.

BackgroundIn Uganda, abortion is permitted only when the life of a woman is in danger. This restriction compels the perpetuation of the practice in secrecy and often under unsafe conditions. In 2003, 294,000 induced abortions were estimated to occur each year in Uganda. Since then, no other research on abortion incidence has been conducted in the country.MethodsData from 418 health facilities were used to estimate the number and rate of induced abortion in 2013. An indirect estimation methodology was used to calculate the annual incidence of induced abortions ─ nationally and by major regions. The use of a comparable methodology in an earlier study permits assessment of trends between 2003 and 2013.ResultsIn 2013, an estimated 128,682 women were treated for abortion complications and an estimated 314,304 induced abortions occurred, both slightly up from 110,000 and 294,000 in 2003, respectively. The national abortion rate was 39 abortions per 1,000 women aged 15–49, down from 51 in 2003. Regional variation in abortion rates is very large, from as high as an estimated 77 per 1,000 women 15–49 in Kampala region, to as low as 18 per 1,000 women in Western region. The overall pregnancy rate also declined from 326 to 288; however the proportion of pregnancies that were unintended increased slightly, from 49% to 52%.ConclusionUnsafe abortion remains a major problem confronting Ugandan women. Although the overall pregnancy rate and the abortion rate declined in the past decade, the majority of pregnancies to Ugandan women are still unintended. These findings reflect the increase in the use of modern contraception but also suggest that a large proportion of women are still having difficulty practicing contraception effectively. Improved access to contraceptive services and abortion-related care are still needed.
In 2022, the rate of abortion among adolescent women aged 19 years in the United States was around 12.4 per 1,000 population. Abortion in the United States remains a controversial and divisive subject. In 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the historic court ruling that gave women the right to abortion. Now states are allowed to completely ban the procedure if they so choose. However, despite the ruling and subsequent abortion bans in many states, polls show the majority of U.S. adults still favor the legalization of abortion. How many abortions are there in the U.S. per year? In 2022, there were around 613,000 legal abortions in the United States. This was one of the lowest numbers recorded since the Roe v. Wade ruling in 1973. The rate of abortions per 100 live births in 2022 was 19.9, a significant decrease from a rate of 30.6 reported in 1997. The states with the highest rates of abortion in 2022 were New Mexico, Illinois, and Kansas, while Missouri and South Dakota had the lowest rates. Abortion among adolescents The rate of abortion among adolescent women in the United States aged 15 to 19 years has also decreased over the past decade. In 2013, there were around 8.2 abortions among adolescent women per 1,000 population. By the year 2022, this figure had dropped to 5.4 per 1,000 population. The majority of abortions among adolescents occur at week nine or less of gestation. The birth control pill is one of the safest and most effective ways to prevent unwanted pregnancy, but only around 23 percent of female high school students who were sexually active were using the pill in 2021.
In 2022, there were around 284 abortions per 1,000 live births among women aged 20 to 24 years. This statistic shows the ratio of legal abortions in the United States from 2013 to 2022, by age, which is the number of legal abortions per 1,000 live births.
This statistic depicts the abortion rate in South Australia from 2003 to 2013. In 2014, approximately 13.8 women out of 1,000 average women aged between 15 and 44 years in Australia had an abortion in South Australia. So far, South Australia is the only state to regularly collect and publish their abortion data is, where the state health department releases an annual report on the state’s pregnancy outcomes.

Estimated number of induced abortions, abortion rates and abortion ratios, by region Uganda 2013.
In 2022, there were around ** legal abortions per 100 live births among unmarried women in the United States. In comparison, the rate of abortion per live births among married women was around **** per 100. The abortion rates for both married and unmarried women in the United States have decreased over the last few decades. Abortion statistics in the United States In 2022, the overall rate of abortion in the United States per 100 live births was ****. Abortion in the U.S. is most common among women aged 25 to 29 years, with around ***abortions per 1,000 women in this age group. The most common method of abortion in 2022 was medical abortion with a gestation of nine weeks or less, followed by surgical abortion with a gestation of 13 weeks or less. Medical abortion involves taking prescription medication to end the pregnancy, while surgical abortion involves a surgical procedure. The two main types of surgical abortion are vacuum aspiration and dilation and evacuation (D&E). Abortion-related deaths in the United States are very rare, with only **** such deaths reported in 2021. Abortion among adolescents In 2022, the abortion rate among adolescent women in the United States aged 15 to 19 years was *** per 1,000 population. In comparison, in 2013, this rate was *** per 1,000 women. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the abortion rate among adolescent women increases with age. In 2022, those aged 19 years had the highest rate of abortion among teenagers. The majority of abortions performed on adolescent women are done in week **** or less of gestation. In 2022, there were around ****** abortions performed on adolescent women in week nine or less of gestation, while ***** abortion procedures were carried out after week nine of gestation.

BackgroundSince mid-2013, Wisconsin abortion providers have been legally required to display and describe pre-abortion ultrasound images. We aimed to understand the impact of this law.MethodsWe used a mixed-methods study design at an abortion facility in Wisconsin. We abstracted data from medical charts one year before the law to one year after and used multivariable models, mediation/moderation analysis, and interrupted time series to assess the impact of the law, viewing, and decision certainty on likelihood of continuing the pregnancy. We conducted in-depth interviews with women in the post-law period about their ultrasound experience and analyzed them using elaborative and modified grounded theory. ResultsA total of 5342 charts were abstracted; 8.7% continued their pregnancies pre-law and 11.2% post-law (p=0.002). A multivariable model confirmed the law was associated with a higher odds of continuing pregnancy (aOR=1.23, 95% CI: 1.01-1.50). Decision certainty (aOR=6.39, 95% CI: ...

PurposeTo investigate the effects of fresh embryo transfer and frozen-thawed embryo transfer on perinatal outcomes among patients with PCOS.MethodPatients who underwent in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer at the reproductive medicine center of the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University from February 2013 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into the fresh embryo transfer group and frozen-thawed embryo transfer group according to whether fresh embryo transfer was performed. According to their conditions, patients were further classified into the ET-PCOS group (group A, n = 104), ET-non-PCOS group (group B, n = 212), FET-PCOS group (group C, n = 102), or FET-non-PCOS group (group D, n = 148); the general data, laboratory indicators and pregnancy outcomes of the patients were statistically analyzed, and the perinatal outcomes and related factors between the groups were compared and analyzed.ResultsThe level of E2 on the HCG test day in the ET group was lower than that in the FET group. The natural birth rate of group D was lower than that of group A and group B, and the cesarean section rate was higher than that of group A and group B; the clinical pregnancy rate of group A was higher than that of group B and group D, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the total abortion rate, early abortion rate or late abortion rate between the groups (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in gestational age, neonatal sex or neonatal weight between the groups (P > 0.05). The incidence of placenta previa in Group B was significantly lower than that in Group D, and the difference was significant (P < 0.05). The incidence of fetal distress in Group B was significantly lower than that in Groups C and D, and the incidence of neonatal jaundice in Group D was significantly higher than that in Groups A and B (P < 0.05). In the multivariate analysis, the number of high-quality embryos was independent factors affecting clinical pregnancy, and the embryo transfer method was an independent factor affecting fetal distress and neonatal jaundice.ConclusionYoung PCOS patients without risk of OHSS have a high clinical pregnancy rate with fresh transplant cycles. PCOS disease itself has no significant effect on the perinatal outcomes of the mother or singleton infant. Frozen-thawed embryo transfer may increase the incidence of low placenta, fetal distress and neonatal jaundice.
