Study Confirms Anecdotal Evidence That Demand For Long-Acting Birth Control Spiked In Weeks After Trump Was Elected

The study found a 21.6 percent increase in the insertion rates of long-acting reversible contraceptive methods among women ages 18-45 in the 30 days after President Donald Trump was elected. “My slots would be booked with women wanting to get IUDs,” Dr. Aparna Sridhar told The New York Times. “They would specifically state that they are getting an IUD because of the political changes they are witnessing.”
