Abortions have not been performed in the Vologda region for the second month in a row says Governor Georgy Filimonov
“In November, no artificial abortion operations were performed in the Vologda Region, for comparison, 141 such operations were performed in the same period last year. In October, there was not a single case, in September – one for medical reasons, in August there was also an isolated incident in July no operations were performed. We are conducting extensive educational work with the Russian Orthodox Church, the medical community and public organizations,” the head of the region wrote in his telegram channel.
In general, the number of abortions in Vologda region decreased in 2025 more than 10 times.

There is not a single private clinic in the region that performs abortions. Medical and social support for pregnant women in a state of reproductive choice is fully operational in state institutions.
“We promote family values and provide comprehensive support to every woman who independently decides to save a child, and we support doctors who share the values of motherhood,” Filimonov added.
According to the governor, the number of first births in the region has increased in the first nine months of 2025 by 1.3%, the number of marriages increased by 2.3%, and there were fewer divorces by 25%.
Using the example of Vologda region, we see how a comprehensive family support program – restrictive measures combined with a regional birth rate increase program is changing the negative trend in population growth in our country.
