Any way to reduce/eliminate the chance of pregnancy?
Currently a little over a week into a new colony (and lamenting how much of what I take for granted came from mods), when I found out one of my colonists is pregnant. Now, I'm not against having children, but we're litterally twelve days in and I'm still coming to terms with the fact that the max construction in my colony is a 5. Now I find out that my Hussar has been knocked up by her baseline boyfriend. I mean, well done buddy, but time and place! I had even instructed everyone to work on their pull out game (the option to cut down pregnancy chance to 25%), but still no luck. I'm not sure I can save scum since I don't know how long ago the happy event occured, since they get busy two or threee times every night.
So, is there any other way to reduce it in game, or should I look for mods while I try to figure out how a 0 social super soldier is going to be a good mother?

There is research that allows you to do vasectomies (male) and install a IUD (female) on colonists to prevent unwanted pregnancies.

you can either use the fertility research to handle it by ingame means. or you switch to a custom difficulty and adjust the base values in the settings

Just give your colonists the infertile genetic modification.

Separate your colony into male and female areas, can't have babies if they can't do the deed. Or make a colony of the Valkyries etc etc.

I guess it could be worse when it comes to parenting. With slaves and pregnancy, Rimworld finally is closer to recreate proper colonies :^)

Also Seperate beds might help just saying, unless they do it standing up or on a single bed, I don't think they added that feature just don't make couples sleep in doubles till your ready for kids boom easiest fix ever.
