The women’s telehealth platform Wisp has disclosed a staggering 233% rise in sales of emergency contraception (EC), widely recognized as the “morning after pill,” in the period preceding Donald Trump’s inauguration. This surge happened during the week of January 13 to January 20, featuring a remarkable 57% jump in orders for EC six-packs on Inauguration Day itself.

This heightened demand aligns with broader apprehensions regarding reproductive rights. Following the inauguration, the government website **reproductiverights.gov**, which offered information on emergency contraception, birth control, and abortion pills, was taken offline, as reported by CBS News. This situation forms part of a larger pattern, as other government sites associated with LGBTQ rights and the Office of Gun Violence Protection also went dark.

The reproductive rights site, initiated in 2022 after the overturning of *Roe v. Wade*, acted as a reference for individuals seeking details on reproductive healthcare. According to archived snapshots of the site, it featured information on ECs and various contraceptive methods. The elimination of this resource has intensified worries about access to reproductive healthcare, especially as conservatives have increasingly focused on birth control and abortion pills over recent years.

Even with the surge in EC purchases on Wisp, the producers of Plan B, a well-known emergency contraceptive brand, indicated no notable uptick in their website traffic. It is important to highlight that Plan B pills cannot be bought directly from the company’s site.
