* Data from 41 reporting areas; excludes 11 reporting areas (California, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Illinois, Maryland, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York City, New York State, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin) that did not report, did not report by number of previous induced abortions, or did not meet reporting standards.

Percentages for the individual component categories might not add to 100% because of rounding.

§ Percentage is calculated as the number of abortions reported by known number of previous induced abortions divided by the sum of abortions reported by known and unknown number of previous induced abortions. Values ≥99.95% are rounded to 100.0%.

For August–December 2022, variable was collected for residents only and reported as unknown for nonresidents.

** Cells with a numerical value in the range of 1–4 and cells that would allow for calculation of these small values have been suppressed.

†† Data reported from facilities physically situated in state only.

§§ Percentage is based on a total of 463,579 abortions reported among the areas that met reporting standards for the number of previous induced abortions.
