As the number of abortions induced by the abortion drug mifepristone continues to snowball, concerns are growing that the chemicals from the drug that are excreted during the abortion process are tainting the U.S. water supply, which could cause infertility and detrimentally affect the already historically low birth rate.
Last year, an astonishing report was published revealing that the global rate of infertility has surged 84% between 1990 and 2021. It further found that in 2021 alone, over 110 million women suffered from infertility, with about one in 10 women of reproductive age being infertile. The increase in infertility largely coincides with the rollout of the abortion pill, which was first released in Europe in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s and in the U.S. in 2000.
The problem may be becoming more acute, as use of the abortion drug has soared since the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision in 2022 that overturned Roe v. Wade, as distribution of mifepristone has spread to all 50 states amid a lack of regulation. The result is that almost two thirds of all abortions are now carried out via the abortion pill.
