I agree that this is one of the worse prochoice arguments and I wish people would use better ones, but I would quibble with the assertion that pregnancy and childbirth don't harm the health of the woman. Childbirth always results in a massive internal wound (a plate size wound where the placenta detatches from the uterus) and it also almost always causes other forms of significant harms to a woman's body in either a vaginal or cesarean delivery. If those wounds were caused in any other circumstances, we would call preventing them a reasonable form of healthcare.

Good point! I'll admit I don't know that much about these medical details.
