LifeNews.com This week, Planned Parenthood released its 2025 annual report. In recent years, these reports have taken on additional significance.

Overall, this new report shows that Planned Parenthood performed 434,450 abortions in 2024. This is an 8 percent increase over the previous year — and represents an all-time high number for them. Overall, Planned Parenthood performs almost 39 percent of the abortions that take place in the United States.
The report also indicates that Planned Parenthood continues to cut back on various health services. Between 2023 and 2024, preventative care visits fell by 3.2 percent, pap tests fell by 2.5 percent, and cancer screenings fell by 8.6 percent. Though Planned Parenthood did report an increase in adoption referrals in 2024, it should be noted that for every adoption referral that took place in 2024, Planned Parenthood still performed over 143 abortions.

In fact, during the past ten years, the number of abortions performed by Planned Parenthood has increased by over 34 percent. Meanwhile, cancer screenings fell by more than 42 percent and prenatal services declined by more than 55 percent during the same time period.
