Online sales of Plan B and birth control pills surges 1500% after Donald Trump’s return

Following Donald Trump’s recent presidential election victory, sales of birth control and emergency contraception have seen a significant increase across the United States. Wisp, an online pharmacy specialising in reproductive and sexual health products, reported a substantial uptick in purchases as women take proactive measures to secure reproductive healthcare, according to USA TODAY. This surge reflects widespread concerns about potential changes to reproductive rights under the returning Trump administration, particularly given his influence in reshaping the Supreme Court during his first term. Wisp CEO Monica Cepak noted that this increase reflects a “heightened sense of urgency” as many women seek to safeguard their access to essential healthcare products amid the changing political landscape.
