That won't always result in a pregnancy of course but there's always the chance.
The pill fails (had it happen), the coil fails (had that happen). Even vasectomies bloody fail. In fact the ONLY certain forms of contraception are abstinence, and full hysterectomy (if there's no uterus, there ain't going to be a pregnancy).
So yeah... Your choices are abstinence for all, unwanted babies for some, or abortion being a thing.

I got pregnant on the arm implant one which is supposed to be 99% or something, that implant stops your period so i didn't even know I was pregnant till I was 17 weeks. I remember ringing my Doctor and asking her, with that implant would you start getting pregnancy symptoms and she said like what? and I was like morning sickness, umm getting fat..... she said "no, how did that happen?"
On a personal level I don't think I'd ever have an abortion but that's my choice, I would never try and tell another woman what they can and cannot do with their own bodies
