April 2, 2024In the early 2000s, hormonal treatments for menopause fell out of favor, but they appear to be rebounding with a notable focus.

The number of overall applications to OB-GYN programs remained stable between 2022 and 2023, but states with abortion bans received fewer applications than those without them. In 2023, about 82 percent of prospective OB-GYNs applied in programs with abortion bans, compared with 86 percent in 2022 and 88 percent in 2021. Almost 100 percent also applied to programs in states that protect abortion rights.
