Resumo: The climacterium consists in a period of signs and symptoms that may reflect in some way in the lives of women, both in a familiar point of view as well as in a professional one. This study had the aim of analyzing the interferences of problems experienced by a woman in climacterium and their relation to health and work environment. It was a descriptiveexploratory research with a qualitative approach and it was carried out with 26 women in the age group of 40 to 57 years old. The informers were health professionals from a public institution of Ceará State. There were applied semi-structured interviews and the data were arranged into categories: the knowledge regarding the physiological transformations of climacterium and its relation to health; the climacterium’s interference in work. The results revealed that despite the knowledge level of the participants regarding the body’s physiological changes, they, nevertheless, had difficulty in accepting this natural physiological process during this phase of life. We conclude that the symptoms presented and experienced during daily life interfere in a negative way in the accomplishment of work-related activities and also in woman’s health

Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar as interferências dos problemas vivenciados pela mulher no climatério e suas relações com a saúde e o ambiente de trabalho. Tratou-se de uma pesquisa exploratória-descritiva com abordagem qualitativa e desenvolvida com 26 mulheres na faixa etária de 40 a 57 anos. As informantes eram profissionais de saúde de uma instituição pública do Estado do Ceará. Utilizaram-se entrevistas semi-estruturadas e os dados foram organizados nas categorias: conhecimento das transformações fisiológicas do climatério e sua relação com a saúde; interferência do climatério no trabalho. Os resultados mostraram que, apesar do nível de conhecimento que as participantes tinham sobre as mudanças fisiológicas do corpo, elas demonstraram dificuldade em aceitar esse processo fisiológico natural dessa etapa da vida. Concluímos que os sintomas apresentados e vivenciados no cotidiano interferem de maneira negativa no desempenho das atividades do trabalho e na saúde da mulher.Universidade de Fortaleza2012-01-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/97410.5020/974Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 19 No. 3 (2006); 140-147Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 19 Núm. 3 (2006); 140-147Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 19 n. 3 (2006); 140-1471806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/974/2136Cavalcante, Sandra Mara Brasil SoaresCatrib, Ana Maria FontenelleSilva, Raimunda Magalhães daFrota, Mirna Albuquerqueinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-01-10T12:18:14Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/974Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2012-01-10T12:18:14Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false
