The abortion statistics for 2023 reveal that it was the leading cause of death worldwide, surpassing infectious diseases and cancer.
Approximately 44.6 million abortions occurred globally, making it the fifth consecutive year that abortion was the primary cause of death.

“The data on abortions displayed on the Worldometer’s counter is based on the latest estimates on worldwide abortions published by various sources, including the World Health Organization,” explained the organization.
“According to WHO, every year in the world there are around 73 million induced abortions. This corresponds to approximately 200,000 abortions per day,” they continued.
“In the USA, where nearly 30 percent of pregnancies are unintended and 40 percent of these are terminated by abortion, there are between 1,500 to 2,500 abortions per day. Nearly 20 percent of all pregnancies in the USA (excluding miscarriages) end in abortion,” reported Worldometer.
“Guttmacher Institute reports 930,160 abortions performed in 2020 in the United States, with a rate of 14.4 per 1,000 women,” they added.
“In states where it’s legal after six weeks, there were nearly 117,000 more abortions reported between July 2022 and June 2023 compared to baseline data from April and May 2022,” according to Axios.
“Many of the states with large increases border those with abortion bans and serve as access points for people traveling out of state,” the outlet continued.
Despite the overturning of Roe vs Wade in 2022, which returned the matter to individual states, abortions have continued to rise.
Democratic-controlled states have seen an increase in abortions, potentially due to women traveling from states with restrictive laws.
