Alan Guttmacher, president of Planned Parenthood and founder of his eponymous institute, served as of the American Eugenics Society.

At least 17 states and the District of Columbia allow pharmacists to provide contraceptive care, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a nonpartisan research and policy organization focused on reproductive and sexual health.

However, according to the Guttmacher Institute, Colorado is the only state that has banned them.

The Guttmacher researchers said they would need more data to determine how the number of abortions has changed on a national scale, including estimates of abortions outside of healthcare settings.

According to 2017 data from the Guttmacher Institute, an abortion-rights organization that gathers provider-specific data from across the country, 88% of abortions took place before the end of the first trimester of pregnancy at 12 weeks.

Also, nine states and Washington, DC, have no term limits on abortions, according to the Guttmacher Institute.

In 2014, 59 percent of people who had an abortion had given birth at least once, according to the Guttmacher Institute.

The Guttmacher Institute that 2,500 to 4,000 centers operate in the United States.

Since Guttmacher is staunchly pro-choice, it viewed any abortion restrictions as negative.
