The reasons of abortions: why women have abortions

Here in the States, a poll of Catholics I saw maybe about 10 years ago said that something like 95% of Catholics don't agree with the Church's teaching on birth control. Does that make them "hypocrites"? Not really as the Church does its job to teach what it believes is right, but Joe & Mary Parishioner have the right to make up their own mind, especially if it doesn't affect others negatively.

Pre-marital chastity is some Pauline theology.
Let's not forget that Jesus forgave the adulteress.

If you are not even going to read your own sources, how can you be taken seriously?

The correct answer to my question is yes.

I don't know. Do you?
The lawsuits were started by anti-abortion activists.

In November a lawsuit was filed by the Christian legal group Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), arguing that the FDA exceeded its regulatory authority and ignored safety concerns when it approved mifepristone – a drug that blocks progesterone, a hormone needed for a pregnancy to develop – more than two decades ago. The FDA vigorously rejected those arguments, pointing to repeated and rigorous reviews of the highly regulated drug.
A Trump-appointed federal judge in Texas, Matthew Kacsmaryk, sided with the plaintiffs, issuing a preliminary injunction on 7 April suspending the FDA’s 23-year-old approval of mifepristone. He also endorsed the plaintiffs’ views that a previously dormant, 150-year-old anti-vice law called the Comstock Act “plainly forecloses mail-order abortion”.
The ADF is thought to have chosen to file the lawsuit in Amarillo, Texas, specifically so it would appear before Kacsmaryk, who is known for his anti-abortion views, and employed anti-abortion rhetoric throughout his decision, referring to mifepristone as a drug used to “kill the unborn human”.

It depends on how much they demand for an abortion.
If they demand thousands of dollars, yes, they are opportunists.

I would have another idea: that the EU sends millions and millions of boxes of hormonal pills to the US. For free.
And nobody profits from selling those hormonal pills?
Couldn't you make the exact same argument there?

The abortion pill costs as much as 800 dollars.
A box of 28 hormonal pills costs less than 17 euros.

You have to constantly re-buy hormonal pills whereas abortion pill is a one time use.
The business model behind hormonal pills is a model based on recurring income.

As an enterpreneur, if I had to pick which one I'll base my business on, I'll take the one with recurring income any day of the week.
