The phrase woman's right to choose expresses both a position and and argument. The position is pro-abortion (or "pro-choice").
The argument expressed by the phrase is that the decision to have an elective abortion is always and necessarily a private matter between a woman and her doctor. It implies that the decision is simply "a matter of choice", and that no one else has a high enough stake in the matter to overrule her choice.
This position is also called pro-choice and generally is favored by social liberals. It is opposed by social conservatives who regard themselves as pro-life.
One flaw with this argument is that the fetus is scientifically a human being, as it has it's own unique DNA different from that of the parent.
