(LifeSiteNews) – Planned Parenthood locations increased their sales of gender “transition” drugs by more than 40% in 2025, according to a new report shedding light on the abortion giant’s left-wing diversification.

The report by the Concerned Women for America (CWfA) General Action Committee aggregates numbers from Planned Parenthood affiliates’ regional reports to obtain more comprehensive data than the national organization’s annual report released this month.

“Though only about 14 regions (covering 1-5 states each) have consistently released this data, every single one increased this past year, suggesting an over 40% expansion of GAC” (so-called “gender-affirming care,” according to the report’s “shocking” findings. That number encompasses total gender-related activities, including “care,” “visits,” and “services.”

The work rose by 50% last year at Planned Parenthood of Greater Ohio locations after a 200% increase the year before and a 544% increase the period before that. 

Planned Parenthood of Greater Washington and Northern Idaho more than doubled gender-related activity since the 2022-2023 period, Planned Parenthood of Great Plains increased it by 90% and Planned Parenthood of Western Pennsylvania more than doubled it.

“This is several years in a row now that this number has increased despite society for the most part turning it back and reversing course on a lot of this,” CWfA Legislative strategist Macy Petty said in a statement to the Daily Wire. “Planned Parenthood has found a way to continue this harmful and destructive business.”

“Given these revelations, the federal government must stop giving taxpayer dollars to Planned Parenthood — we should not be funding this evil organization,” CWfA president Penny Nance added.

The report offers a fuller picture of a subject curiously glossed over by Planned Parenthood Federation’s aforementioned annual report. It highlighted Planned Parenthood’s work on a study it says will detail the “harm” of “state-based restrictions on gender-affirming care,” but downplays its own involvement in that “care,” listing only a small footnote that “transgender services” are among the various items included in its 50,411 “Other Procedures.” 

While Planned Parenthood is best known as the nation’s largest abortion chain, it is also deeply involved in the LGBT movement. It advertises itself as a “safe and welcoming place to get transgender/nonbinary hormone therapy (sic),” including estrogen, anti-androgen, testosterone, and puberty blockers.

As of the abortion giant’s 2022-2023 annual report, 45 affiliates offered so-called “gender-affirming hormone therapy” in 2022. Its previous report said 30 affiliates participated in 69 medical studies, an unspecified number of which involved so-called “care” to reinforce gender dysphoria.

A large body of evidence shows that “affirming” gender confusion carries serious harms, especially when done with impressionable children who lack the mental development, emotional maturity, and life experience to consider the long-term ramifications of the decisions being pushed on them, or full knowledge about the long-term effects of life-altering, physically transformative, and often-irreversible surgical and chemical procedures.

In 2024, National Health Service (NHS) England’s landmark Cass Review found that “gender medicine” is “built on shaky foundations” and that while such interventions require a great deal of caution, “quite the reverse happened in the field of (so-called) gender care for children,” and that “(w)hile a considerable amount of research has been published in this field, systematic evidence reviews demonstrated the poor quality of the published studies, meaning there is not a reliable evidence base upon which to make clinical decisions, or for children and their families to make informed choices.”

Earlier this month, a study of “all under-23-year-old gender-referred individuals between 1996 and 2019” in Finland (2,083 people) found that those who had gone through gender transitions had “markedly higher psychiatric morbidity (other mental health issues) than controls before and after referral, with treatment needs often persisting and even intensifying after medical interventions.”

Many oft-ignored detransitioners, individuals who attempted transitioning before regretting it and returning to life as their true sex, attest to the physical and mental harm of reinforcing gender confusion as well as to the bias and negligence of the medical establishment on the subject, many of whom take an activist approach to their profession and begin cases with a predetermined conclusion that “transitioning” is the best solution.

“Gender-affirming” physicians have also been caught on video admitting to more old-fashioned motives for such procedures, as with a 2022 exposé about Vanderbilt University Medical Center’s Clinic for Transgender Health, where Dr. Shayne Sebold Taylor said outright that “these surgeries make a lot of money.”
