A womans personal choice to not carry a child, give birth and raise said child can in fact have nothing to do with eugenics.
how big of a role do you think eugenics have within the reasons of women terminating pregnancies? you say pro-choice but woman in every single society since recorded history have had methods/procedures to terminate and even avoid pregnancy, this isn't some new motivation by some shadowy conspiracy group .
The relationship between methods of modern birth control and eugenics is not easily divorced. For example, the creation of the housing projects in Harlem and Brooklyn was led by one of my ancestral predecessors who was only successful in his dealings with Rockefeller by allowing Sanger and her organization to be involved with "providing services" to black mothers and children through these neighborhoods.
It would be ignorant for anyone to discount Sanger's motivations for this as her thoughts about population control in her youth were mainly directed at blacks.
