Life Hacks/Numerical values breakdown on physical attributes
Each attribute is actually more of an umbrella category than anything, with several sub-aspects grouped together under a single value for the sake of convinience. A value of 200 makes it possible to bring every aspect of the category to its most optimized level, but even with a maxed out value of 200 it is still possible to customize the distribution of the various aspects further.
For instance, above a certain level, the male fertility stat gains the ability to raise the chance of implantation in the mother's uterus, and also reduce the chance of miscarriage or complications. At these high levels, there is also an outrageously large amount of semen generated with each ejaculation. It is possible to re-allocate some points from the ejaculation size over to the ability to reduce miscarriage and increase implantation, thus further raising the chance of a successful pregnancy.
Male fertility
NOTE: Male fertility levels typically start out around 60 points lower than what they will eventually be when they first hit seminarche, rapidly increase by 30 points in the space of 1 year, and then slowly peak by the age of 16. A male stays at full fertility until the age of 25 and then it declines very gradually at a rate of around 1-2 points per year until his health begins to decline, barring any issues such as an STD or cancer of the reproductive system. Also note that these numbers are for a middle-aged adult. The average teen has a fertility of 120, and the average pre-pubescent child has a fertility of 60.
There is a special case exception for males with a fertility over 150 will not begin to decline until age 40, and those with a fertility above 180 will not decline until their health begins to decline due to old age equivalent to a typical 70-year-old.
Also, males with a fertility over 150 have sperm with a degree of resistance to hostile chemicals such as spermicide or chlorine, thus allowing them to potentially impregnate a girl in a swimming pool with them by ejaculating in the pool. All sperm actually possess this quality, but until the fertility reaches 150 the numbers are so low as to be negligible. Males with a fertility over 180 have semen that can survive under dry conditions, having no fluid medium, thus a hand that even came into contact with his semen, even if it's wiped off or washed, can get a girl pregnant by touching her vagina. This survival time is the same as the amount of time the sperm can survive under hostile conditions.
Format
All entries will be in the following format.
- Age of puberty: Self explanatory
- Sperm volume: The amount of space only the extracted sperm-cells would occupy in a test-tube from one ejaculation. Actual semen volume varies greatly as a result of activity from the prostate, but this is the minimum amount. Note: Prostate production is more a trait than an attribute and does not actually affect the chance of impregnation. Although, a volume of 2X the number listed here is normal. (in the case of an artificially increased fertility through the hack, ejaculations are likely to be as thick as wet cement due to inadequate seminal fluid for the large amount of sperm.)
- Sperm count: the number of sperm cells per ml of semen (assumes 1 ejaculation per day, can increase to multiply by sperm's life expectancy under lab conditions if that many days pass without ejaculation, or be reduced harshly with even 2 ejaculations in 1 day unless the "infinite cum" cheat is used.)
- Semen recovery rate: number of ml of semen recovered, and the amount of time it takes to recover that amount
- Full volume recovery: the amount of time to recover full volume of semen
- Sperm life expectancy in uterus: The amount of time the sperm can survive in the uterus, 3 values given 1.Female has 50 fertility / 2. Female has 100 fertility / 3 Female has 200 fertility
- Sperm life expectancy in vagina: The amount of time the sperm can survive in the vagina, same 3 values given as above.
- Sperm life expectancy in open-air environment:
- Sperm life expectancy under hostile conditions: The amount of time sperm can survive in an environment such as a chlorine filled pool, must be at least 1 hour in order to produce pregnancy via transfer in swimming pool. Note, spermicide in condoms is also considered a hostile condition, but only the outer edges of the semen are in contact with the spermicide and thus, portions of the semen that don't come into contact with the spermicide can survive up to 10X longer.
- Sperm life expectancy in testicles or under laboratory conditions: The maximum multiplier the male can get to his sperm count by "saving his sperm" for the listed number of days. (Note, the "infinite cum" cheat automatically places sperm count at a level as though he hasn't ejaculated for this number of days.
- Sperm swimming speed: Time it takes the leading sperm that uses the fastest route to reach the fallopian tubes from the cervix. (Note: with 100 million sperm, at least 1 will take this route by sheer probability.) Sperm that are at the entrance to the vagina will take about the same amount of time to reach the cervix and enter the uterus. Note, the mucus membrane of the vagina is somewhat acidic, to protect from yeast infection, and thus sperm in the vagina will be damaged and reduce their life expectancy at an average rate of 4X the rate they would age in the uterus.
(Note: Sperm swimming speed assumes an adult woman. Assume 3/4 value for a 14-year-old, 1/2 value for a 10-year-old, and 1/4 value for a 6-year-old)
50 fertility
- Age of puberty: 15-17 years
- Sperm volume: 0.5-1 ml
- Semen recovery rate: 0.1 ml / hour
- Full volume recovery: 10 hours
- Sperm life expectancy in uterus: 30-180 minutes/ 3-6 hours / 3-5 days
- Sperm life expectancy in vagina: 5-30 minutes / 30-180 minutes / 3-5 days

- Sperm life expectancy in hostile conditions: NA
- Sperm life expectancy in testicles or under laboratory conditions: 24-36 hours
- Sperm swimming speed: 2 hours
Note: a 50 fertility male is the lowest value that can conceivably impregnate a 100 fertility female with difficulty. Successfully impregnating a 50 fertility female would be a 1 in a million miracle without in-vitro fertilization.
100 fertility
- Age of puberty: 13 years, 6 months
- Sperm volume: 2-4 ml
- Semen recovery rate: 1 ml / 12 hours
- Full volume recovery: 1-2 days

- Sperm life expectancy in vagina: 30-180 minutes / 6-12 hours / 6-10 days
- Sperm life expectancy in open-air environment: 20-60 minutes
- Sperm life expectancy in hostile conditions: 10 minutes (sperm from spermicide containing condom can impregnate as a 50 fertility male if placed in vagina within 5 minutes)
- Sperm life expectancy in testicles or under laboratory conditions: 5 days
- Sperm swimming speed: 20 minutes
200 fertility
- Age of puberty: 8 years, 6 months
- Semen volume: 30-50 ml
- Semen recovery rate: 2 ml / hour
- Full volume recovery: 1-2 days
- Sperm life expectancy in uterus: 3-5 days / 6-10 days / 8-12 days
- Sperm life expectancy in vagina: 3-5 days / 6-10 days / 8-12 days

- Sperm life expectancy in hostile conditions: 6 hours
- Sperm life expectancy in testicles or under laboratory conditions: 15 days
- Sperm swimming speed: 10 minutes
Special note: Raises rate of successful implantation 50%, and lowers rate of miscarriage 30%. Additional effects, carries pheromone effect if smelled or swallowed. Has intense soothing and endorphin-stimulating effects in vagina.
Female fertility
NOTE: Female fertility levels start out around 60 points lower than what they will eventually reach when they ovulate their first egg, this rapidly increases by around 10 points by just the second ovulation, and then an additional 30 points within the next year. Female fertility levels eventually peak around 3 or so years after puberty begins, and then maintain peak levels till around the age of 21 at which point they very gradually begin to decline at a rate of around 1 point per year till age 35 at which point the decline accelerates to a rate of 3-5 points per year till around the age at which they hit menopause. Also note that these numbers are for a middle-aged adult. The average teen has a fertility of 120, and the average pre-pubescent child has a fertility of 60.
There is a special-case exception for females with fertility levels higher than 150, who will have a far more gradual decline that does not accelerate so rapidly. The sharp increase in their decline only occurs at the age which their health begins to deteriorate due to natural old age. Also, fertility levels over 180 will not decline at all barring health reasons until around age 70.
Format
All entries will be in the following format
- Age of puberty: Note, in females, low fertility can produce both delayed and expedited puberty as possible outcomes, so early puberty is not necessarily a sign of higher fertility in girls. Also, there is some variation in age of puberty by ethnicity. The numbers given here are for Caucasian females. Middle Eastern, Hispanic and Black females can hit puberty as much as 1-2 years earlier, whereas East Asian or ethnically Jewish females may hit puberty up to 6 months later than the listed numbers.
Other factors that can advance female puberty include...
- Having no father living actively in the house (visitations every 2 weeks counts as not present for the purpose of advancing puberty.)
- Having no post-pubescent male relatives period living in the house (doubles the effect of no father.)
- Living with an adult male not related to her by blood
- Consuming food containing artificial growth hormones.
- Consuming food containing estrogen mimickers such as BPA and soy proteins.
- Being subject to physical abuse (body interprets that it is under threat and must reproduce sooner in order to pass on genes, can advance puberty by as much as 3 years.)
- Being sexually active including unprotected PIV sex (can advance puberty by around 1 year for every 3 months of sexual activity)
Note: unless stated otherwise, these each reduce the age of puberty by around 6 months to a year. Also, no combination of factors can reduce puberty by more than 1/2 the natural age for the girl's fertility level. (So, for a fertility of 50, which has a pubescent age of 14, it can be reduced as low as 7. For a fertility of 200, which has a pubescent age of 8 and 6 months, it can be reduced to 4 and 3 months.) Also, with the exception of the artificial hormone methods, all methods will decrease the fertility growth effect (the +60 over the first 3 years of puberty,) and with multiple combined, especially suffering from physical abuse, it can also lower initial fertility.

Effects of female birth control
All female birth control, except for the diaphragm which functions by blocking the sperm from reaching the cervix, functions by either releasing high levels of estrogen and progesterone which agitate the lining of the uterus and cause it to dislodge the embryo as it tries to implant, resulting in a grey area that could either be called a miscarriage or a failure to implant, or by using mechanical devices that have the same result. As such, the effects of all female birth control, except for the diaphragm, will be represented as lowering the % chance of successful implantation. (Note: -50% is all that's needed to prevent pregnancy for a 100 fertility female) As such, an implantation rate over 100% is capable of resisting the effects of the female birth control methods.
Below are the effects of the various commonly available birth control methods.
- The pill (Implantation rate -60%)
Releases a dose of estrogen and progesterone throughout the body.
- "Plan B" (Implantation rate -80%)
Releases a does of estrogen and progesterone that is 2 times stronger than the dose from the pill, thus enabling the dislodging of an already implanted embryo within a few weeks.
- Internal Uterine Device (IUD) (Implantation rate -80%)
A physical device that is implanted inside the uterus. The uterus recognizes it as a foreign object and tries to expell it, and in the process makes it nearly impossible for an embryo to implant. (Carries some risk of permanently damaging the uterus.)
- Birth control ring (Implantation rate -60%)
An insert into the vagina that releases Estrogen and Progesterone right next to the uterus, thus reducing the needed dose and lowering side-effects to the body typical for the pill.
- Hormonal implant (Implantation rate -20%, fertility -100, (no effect on fertility levels over 180, and 1/2 effect of fertility levels over 150))
An implant in the upper arm that slowly releases progesterone (no estrogen) over the course of 3 years. Is generally used for the convenience of not having to worry about the pill, but is a very expensive option up front. Due to the lack of estrogen used, it can also have the effect of deminishing the period or stopping it all together. (Reflected in-game by a 100 point drop in fertility in addition to the lowered implantation rate. NOTE, the implantation reduction only being -20% reflects the 0.005% failure rate after the -100 fertility has already been applied. With it only being -20, a woman with a 140 fertility still has a slim chance of getting pregnant.)
- Diaphragm (no effect on implantation rate)
physical barrier placed inside vagina to obstruct semen from reaching cervix. Under normal conditions where the sperm only survive for 6-12 hours, this means the sperm will fully die off before they have a chance to enter the uterus. However, highly fertile males who have sperm that will last for days instead of hours and have a high swimming speed will only be slown down by this barrier and be able to pass it, the same can apply to females with a high enough fertility to allow the sperm to survive in her vagina for days although the effect will be less since the sperm do not have faster swimming speeds.
A diaphragm is useless if both parties have a fertility of 150 or higher, if just the male has a fertility of 180 or higher, or if just the female has a fertility of a full 200.
