Look at the historic birth rate in countries where where these things aren't an issue and you'll realize that unless you walk back on women rights and access to contraception, people won't have enough babies to renew the population because they simple don't want to have enough of them to do so.

There might be other factors at play. Deciding to have a child is a complex decision. But not having those things mentioned just makes the problem worse.

Also, speaking of historical facts. Even outlawing abortion and such doesn't stop it. They travel or use risky methods. Or they put the kid up for adoption which leads to a massive spike in crime. Which is why roughly 18 years after Roe v Wade there was a drop in crime.
