Yes, when the "defenceless life" becomes a mother her rights are not considered important.

Are there any legal avenues being explored to stop men from putting women and girls into jeopardy by making them pregnant in the first place?

Sorry, that's not really a serious question, a) because the abortion problem is viewed as one created by women and girls, b) because the majority of people in the position of power to create the legislation are men and not women, and c) maybe some men think it's a God-given right to impregnate women/girls as and when they choose regardless of the consequences on the women/girls.
