I got assigned to a ship for a 4 month “humanitarian” deployment in between actual deployments and 7 women from that ship alone intentionally got pregnant to avoid 4 months in Oceania. I went out and got drunk and made friends in every port, made lifelong friends with some of the other enlisted and NCOs, and worked out. That was apparently too difficult for those women.
