Reflective theoretical study, descriptive with a qualitative approach, the following databases were used for its execution: SCIELO, BVS, which is integrated with other databases such as LILACS, PAHO, WHOLIS and PUBMED. A total of 33 articles were selected, 3 of which were international and 30 of national origin. Mostly cross-sectional and descriptive studies with a qualitative approach. As inclusion criteria, original articles in Portuguese and English were used, respecting the publication time limit between 2011 and 2021. The themes that guided the research were: obstetric violence; prenatal care: preparation for childbirth, education of the pregnant woman and insertion of the partner/father; humanization in the pregnancy-puerperal period; role of the nurse and awareness of the team for humanization; knowledge of women about their rights during pregnancy and puerperal period.
