This represents a slight decrease of 0.7 percent compared to the previous year. The figure remains above the level recorded between 2014 and 2020, when annual cases ranged from roughly 99,000 to 101,000. The data does not allow for an assessment of the causes behind this trend, and no information is available on the personal reasons for choosing an abortion under the counseling regulation.<\/p>\n<p>In 2025, seven out of ten women (69 percent) who underwent an abortion were between the ages of 18 and 34, while 20 percent were aged 35 to 39. Nine percent of the women were 40 years or older, and 3 percent were under 18. Additionally, 44 percent of the women had not given birth to a child before the abortion.<\/p>\n<p>Ninety-six percent of abortions reported in 2025 were performed under the so-called counseling regulation. Medical reasons or indications due to sexual offenses accounted for 4 percent of cases.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time in 2025, the medication Mifegyne was the most common abortion method, used in 45 percent of procedures. The vacuum aspiration method, which had been the most frequent until 2024, accounted for 43 percent. Most procedures were performed on an outpatient basis, with about 86 percent taking place in doctors&#8217; offices or surgical centers and 12 percent in hospital outpatient settings.<\/p>\n<p>The majority of abortions (80 percent) occurred within the first eight weeks of pregnancy, while 3 percent were performed after the 12th week or later.<\/p>\n<p>Ten-Year Comparison Shows Fewer Abortions in Younger Age Groups<\/p>\n<p>Compared to 2015, when 99,200 cases were recorded, the number of abortions in 2025 was 6.5 percent (or 6,500 cases) higher. However, trends varied by age group. Declines were observed among women aged 15 to 17 (down 6.1 percent, or 200 cases) and those aged 20 to 24 (down 4.4 percent, or 900 cases). In contrast, significant increases occurred among women aged 30 to 34 (up 8.5 percent, or 1,900 cases), 35 to 39 (up 27.5 percent, or 4,500 cases), and 40 to 44 (up 24.1 percent, or 1,600 cases).<\/p>\n<p>These developments are partly attributable to demographic shifts. Over the same period, the number of women aged 15 to 17 fell by 4.0 percent, and the number of women aged 20 to 24 declined by 4.9 percent. At the same time, the female population rose by 2.4 percent for those aged 30 to 34, by 14.7 percent for those aged 35 to 39, and by 6.6 percent for those aged 40 to 44.<\/p>\n<p>When measured as abortions per 10,000 women, rates remained nearly unchanged for women aged 15 to 17 (25 in both years) and for those aged 20 to 24 (rising from 92 to 94). Among women aged 30 to 34, the rate increased from 86 to 92; among those aged 35 to 39, from 67 to 75; and among women aged 40 to 44, from 26 to 31.<\/p>\n<p>Trend Toward Earlier Abortions and Increased Use of Mifegyne<\/p>\n<p>In 2025, abortions were more frequently performed in earlier weeks of pregnancy compared to a decade earlier. Forty-nine percent of abortions in 2025 took place within the first six weeks, up from 36 percent in 2015. The share of abortions performed between the seventh and eleventh weeks of pregnancy decreased from 61 percent to 48 percent over the same period.<\/p>\n<p>The use of the medication Mifegyne for abortions has grown steadily. Its share rose from 19 percent in 2015 to 45 percent in 2025, representing an increase of 28,800 cases. Conversely, the share of vacuum aspiration procedures fell sharply from 64 percent to 43 percent, a decline of 18,700 cases.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-alpha-black mb-3\">Interactive table based on the Store Companies dataset for this report.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\tSort: Rank<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tSort: Company A-Z<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tSort: Headquarters A-Z<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t#<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tCompany<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tHeadquarters<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tFocus<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tScale<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tNote<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t1<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBayer AG<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLeverkusen<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPharmaceuticals, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGlobal<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMajor diversified pharma producer<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t2<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMerck KGaA<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tDarmstadt<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPharmaceuticals, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGlobal<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tIncludes Merck Serono business<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t3<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBoehringer Ingelheim<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tIngelheim am Rhein<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPharmaceuticals, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGlobal<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLarge R&amp;D-based pharma company<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t4<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tViatris (Mylan) GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tFrankfurt<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGlobal<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPart of Viatris global group<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t5<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tSTADA Arzneimittel AG<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBad Vilbel<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLarge<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMajor European generics company<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t6<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHexal AG<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHolzkirchen<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLarge<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPart of Novartis Sandoz division<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t7<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tRatiopharm GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tUlm<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLarge<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMajor generics producer, part of Teva<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t8<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAliud Pharma GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLaichingen<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGeneric pharmaceuticals<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t9<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tDermapharm AG<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGr\u00fcnwald<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tSpecialty Pharma, Dermatology<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tFocus on dermatological corticosteroids<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t10<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tDr. Gerhard Mann GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBerlin<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPharma-chemicals and generics<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t11<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMibe GmbH Arzneimittel<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBrehna<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tJenaHexal\/Mibe group<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t12<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tTAD Pharma GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tCuxhaven<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tSterile pharmaceuticals<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tInjectable corticosteroids<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t13<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAbZ-Pharma GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tUlm<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGeneric drug manufacturer<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t14<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tCT Arzneimittel GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBerlin<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGeneric pharmaceuticals<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t15<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAzupharma GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tB\u00f6blingen<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerics, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPharmaceutical manufacturing<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t16<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWinthrop Arzneimittel GmbH<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMunich<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHospital Pharma, Corticosteroids<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMedium<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPart of Sanofi group<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t17<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tG.
