Deciding when ready to reproduce

Nature gave some female ducks the ability to redirect the male's penis into a different place during sex to stop fertilization, but it doesn't give human women a simple voluntary way to stop a pregnancy after sex has happened. It's likely that all of the decision making was forced into the part where the women chooses whether she wants to have sex or not. Nature basically coerces a human so that he or she will reproduce whether he or she feels consciously ready or not. And, this may have been the optimal way to decide. It wouldn't have evolved this way if it wasn't a pretty good way.
