Around Easter, Planned Parenthood quietly released its 2024 annual report, detailing the organization’s statistics and services from July 2024 through June 2025. Each year, pro‑life groups closely analyze this report for one primary reason: it highlights Planned Parenthood’s central business, abortion, and the immense number of preborn lives lost as a result.
The numbers from this latest report are sobering.
- 434,450 abortions were performed during FY 2024. That averages 1,190 abortions per day, up from 1,102 per day in FY 2023.
- 171,000 individuals were assisted in obtaining abortions through direct supervision, referral coordination, online facilitation, financial assistance, and logistical support—five times more than just two years ago.
- $3.7 million was given to affiliates to fund abortion travel for 12,200 individuals.
- $832 million in taxpayer funding was received, a 5 percent increase from FY 2023.
As Dr. Michael New noted in National Review, Planned Parenthood increased its abortion total by 8 percent, the highest number in its history. At the same time, the organization’s legitimate health services declined significantly. Preventive care visits fell by 3.2 percent, Pap tests dropped by 2.5 percent, and cancer screenings decreased by 8.6 percent. These trends make clear what Planned Parenthood increasingly prioritizes: abortion over genuine women’s healthcare.
What the report does not capture, however, is equally important. Planned Parenthood’s numbers do not represent all abortions performed in the United States. Surgical abortions continue to occur at independently run facilities, and the rapid expansion of mail‑order abortion pills has pushed many abortions into private, unreported settings, such as dorms rooms, houses, and apartments. With no national abortion reporting law, the true number of abortions is almost certainly far higher than existing data suggests.
This report is a grim reminder that although Roe v. Wade has been overturned, the abortion industry—led by Planned Parenthood and legitimized by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and other medical organizations—continues to expand through mail order abortions in all 50 states that often place women’s health and safety at risk in addition to the hundreds of thousands of preborn lives lost.
As the medical voice of the pro‑life movement, AAPLOG remains committed to challenging the abortion industry and pro‑abortion medical narratives with accurate scientific and medical evidence, compassion, and the authentic purpose of medicine: to heal, never to intentionally harm.
