Menstrual Cycle
Hi! I know this suggestion might sound a little strange, and I’ve been hesitant to include it on the wishlist, as it’s a topic that’s sometimes considered taboo. But I think adding this option would add a lot more realism to the Zoi’s lives.
I’ve tried KawaiiStacie’s mod (within Slice of Life) in other simulation games, and I love it. It makes relationships—whether romantic, friendship, or familial—feel much more authentic. That’s why I think it could be a great fit here as well.
After all, if the goal is to simulate life in all its essence, this is an aspect that many people experience. Depending on the time of the cycle, emotions and interactions can change, which would add an interesting dynamic among the Zoi. You could even play with factors like fertility, the transition from childhood to adolescence, or from adulthood to old age. If done right, it could be fun, challenging, and even add an extra touch of realism.
I understand that, given the age of the audience, it would have to be done in a subtle and tailored way, but I still think it would be worth it. What do you think?
Oh, and I almost forgot: it would obviously have to include the necessary hygiene products!

In the interest of teaching the sometimes strange realities of feminine self-care to my gender (male), yes please. This isn’t about sex itself, this is about the legitimate health issues women deal with that men are usually simply never told (and when we are, sadly, the explanation is often dismissed by the man unfairly). People are often more willing to be shown the difference in a simulation than to simply have it explained to them, and that need not include any truly explicit content, only enough to make it clear that women actually do have a harder time staying healthy than men due to various inconvenient aspects of female biology.

Of course, I’m not referring to anything sexual or anything like that… But I do understand how all of this influences everyday life. For example, I understand that there are people who aren’t interested in all this, but I’ve already played with that mod, and it’s nothing like other adult mods, and I love it. Honestly, I love her entire mod. And they’re mods that I definitely consider essential for my games, since they add realism, and that’s fun. For example, as has been mentioned in other forum posts, if they feel ashamed and show their face for it, sadness, anger, or if they drink alcohol, it has an effect on the Zoi. Well, the same with this topic. And that’s something that could also be useful, in addition to being something natural.

I think that would be a cute thing to add. We already have taking pregnancy tests that can be negative or positive and morning sickness.
It could start at the adolescent age-group and could be a core memory. Depending on the Zoi’s personality they can be excited or embarrassed. There can be interactions between child and parent Zois about talking about puberty or congratulating them on their first period.
When your Zoi becomes a young adult they can be more fertile and get less fertile as they move through each age group. Also, going through menopause is important. I had an elderly Zoi still having babies well into old age.
A Zoi can also have fertility issues and may need to go to a doctor or needs to purchase fertility treatment.
