President Donald Trump ran on a platform condemning the Affordable Care Act. Since his presidency, Trump has worked to reform the country’s health care system.
With health care comes birth control. With the fear of that health care going away, comes intrauterine devices, or IUDs. An IUD is a form of birth control that is inserted into the uterus and can prevent pregnancy for up to 12 years. After just one week into the Trump presidency, Planned Parenthood saw a 900 percent increase of patients seeking IUDs.
