Reproductive rights refer to more than just abortion, there are groups advocating for the prohibition of contraceptives as well.
As for current states. When a government threatens doctors with prison time over providing abortions they deem necessary for the care of their patients, that the state has no business policing, then the state controls reproductive rights at the expense of the consent of those directly involved.
We do not currently have a state that tells people they're not allowed to have children, but many countries have in the 20th century committed forced sterilization of "undesirables" including the United States. Allowing state control over ANY aspect of reproduction is a slippery slope that is difficult to climb out of. Be careful what you wish for.
