Food doesnt determine if you get pregnant. Since you just got the nuva ring you will need to wait at least a full 30 days with protection to make sure the medicine is working.

The "withdraw" method is how it got pregnant with my son, I don't recommend it. The depo shot worked great for me when I was your age but I did gain some weight. The pill usually isn't a good option because if you don't take it at the same time everyday or if you miss a dose you could get pregnant. Food dose not effect anything when it comes to conceiving.Your best bet is the shot or patch...the patch is sort of annoying and made me nauseous..but it has different effects for different people. The down side of the patch is that it can be seen by who ever your being intimate with. It's kind of annoying. From showering it starts to get all gunky before your supost to change it, so you have a messy sticker on your butt for days. hope this helps =).

I would to suggest abstinence! You are very young to be giving such an important part of yourself away. I'm not sure where you got the assumption that there were foods that would prevent pregnancy, but that is 100% untrue. Also, if you take anything away from this posting, please realize in today's world there are bigger things to be concerned with than getting pregnant, such as STD's and long term emotional effects.....neither of which does the Nuvuring or any other hormone supplement prevent against. Find a trusted adult to talk this over with. You have your entire life in front of you.

in response to the abstinence method - yes that is one way to avoid this topic altogether, however, it sounds like you are planning to be sexually active regardless of whether someone tells you to be abstinent or not. With that being said, it is a very good idea to start seeing an obgyn and discussing first off, getting the HPV vaccine, as well as considering birth control options that are feasible for you (are you on a tight schedule? will taking a pill every day be too much for you? are you willing to understand and are prepared to deal with the consequences of taking such birth control?) Also, since you are young, possibly trying (although it's understandable and scary to discuss it) with your parents/guardians about being sexually active. If this isn't the case, go to a Planned Parenthood or some other facility that can offer you medical treatment/advice. That's my two cents, hope this is helpful to you.

Get on birthcontrol.
Get educated about sex.
Get on birthcontrol.
GET ON BIRTHCONTROL.

You need to get educated - you seem confused about how sex works, what happens during conception, how to prevent conception in a real, workable way.

If you don't have an adult that you trust to educate you - try to find a planned parenthood clinic - they are super nice and give exams and birthcontrol away for free - plus they live to educate women on how to protect themselves, their bodies, and their futures. They don't like performing abortions any more than people like the idea of having them, so they work really hard to make sure YOU NEVER HAVE TO MAKE THAT DECISION.

Withdrawal has a failure rate of 40-60% - that means if 100 women use withdrawal as birthcontrol for one year, 4-6 of every 10 will get pregnant. Worse, since you are so young, your body has not regulated its cycle - there is no predictable time when you'll ovulate right now, so your chances of picking the wrong time are even higher than an older woman's would be.

Imagine having to drop out of school. Imagine not being able to be with your friends doing the things you love doing now - you think you can do that if you're pregnant or have a baby? Imagine not graduating with them because you have to take time off from school for a baby? Imagine getting herpes or worse, HIV. They are permanent and will be with you forever. If you get HIV, you can die - and, if you get herpes, you have to tell EVERY PERSON YOU WANT TO BE INTIMATE WITH FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. Imagine that. Imagine telling your parents and your boy's parents that you've gotten pregnant. Imagine how you will feel if you have to make the decision to have an abortion.

I'm not trying to tell you not to do what you're doing, you're going to do it anyways and it's your decision to make. I made the same decision myself. The only thing that saved me - and got me to wake up and realize how much I didn't know about pregnancy was when I got pregnant on withdrawal at 16 and miscarried 7 weeks into it.

Sex can be totally awesome for hundred's of reasons, but it can also hurt you physically or emotionally or have fall out that affects you for the rest of your life. The only thing that determines which way it goes is how you make your choices based on your knowledge about sex. Not learning, not knowing what can happen or how it works wont stop the world from turning and it wont prevent, keep you safe, or even care whether or not you bother to learn about sex. You'll just get sick, hurt, or pregnant.

Get some help girl.

You're 14? How about going to the mall or something? Why worry about sex at such a young age? Do yourself a favor and wait a few more years.

I got pregnant with my first child while on oral contraceptives and the second using the withdraw method. I would suggest abstinence. You are so young, and one day when you get married, you are going to be so sad that you have messed around with all these other meaningless guys. I had sex at a very young age, and I thought it was so much fun and that I was so in love. Then you grow up and realize how these stupid mistakes will stay with you for the rest of your life. I'm sure you are going to continue to do it anyway, but just know that even birth control is not always effective.
