Resumo: |  Objective: The Brazil suffered a quick and intense decline of fertility in the last 40 years. In the last 20 years the young man had more access to information about sexual matters. In the late 80 occurred the advent of AIDS and the precocity of sexual initiation among teenagers in the last decade have been observed. Thus, the present work proposed to verify the level of knowledge and use of contraceptive methods among women residing in the region South of São Paulo city. Methods: Enquiry study type KAP; Knowledge, attitude and practice in 40 women between 14 to 50 years was performed in the South of São Paulo city. Results: Among the women interviewed, 66% showed 14 to 30 age years. The education level of the respondents was 37% with upper level incomplete and 36% with upper level complete totaling 73% of respondents. Concerning to the different contraceptives methods presented, it was noted that 34% make use of the pill as a hormonal oral contraceptive and 33% use the male condom as barrier contraceptive, making a total of 67%. Discussion: It became apparent by this study the low knowledge about the female condom, as well as its use as a contraceptive barrier method by female respondents (8%). It was also observed that 98% of women interviewed ever had guidance on sexually transmitted diseases (Std). These findings suggest a strong association between the practice of contraceptives methods used to the best levels of schooling, since the access to information in schools, universities and lectures totaled 62.5% of the interviewed woman. Conclusions: We highlight the importance of Public Sectors of health and Social Welfare as the guidance to family planning and sex education, as well as a larger number of public campaigns which cover this subject of great importance for society. The need of more investments in education, with emphasis on sexuality in adolescence and in the knowledge of the use of contraceptives is also important. |

Nos últimos 20 anos o jovem passou a ter mais acesso a informações sobre questões sexuais. No final dos anos 80 destacou-se o advento da AIDS e a precocidade da iniciação sexual entre adolescentes na última década. Assim, o presente trabalho propôs-se verificar o nível de conhecimento e utilização de métodos anticoncepcionais entre as mulheres residentes na região Sul da cidade de São Paulo. Métodos: Realizou-se um estudo do tipo inquérito CAP; Conhecimento, Atitude e Prática, em 40 mulheres com faixa etária entre 14 a 50 anos, na região Sul de São Paulo. Resultados: Dentre o total de mulheres entrevistadas, 66% apresentaram faixa etária entre 14 e 30 anos. O nível de escolaridade das entrevistadas foi de 37% com nível superior incompleto e 36% com nível superior completo totalizando 73% das entrevistadas. Quanto ao conhecimento frente aos diferentes métodos anticoncepcionas apresentados, observou-se que 34% fazem uso da pílula como contraceptivo hormonal oral e 33% utilizam a camisinha masculina como contraceptivo de barreira, perfazendo um total de 67 %. Discussão: Ficou evidente por esse estudo o baixo conhecimento da camisinha feminina, bem como da sua utilização como metodo contraceptivo feminino de barreira pelas entrevistadas (8%). Observou-se, ainda que 98% das mulheres entrevistadas já teve orientação sobre Doenças Sexualmente Transmissíveis (DSTs). Esses achados sugerem uma forte associação entre a prática da utilização de metodos contraceptiveis por mulheres com melhores níveis de escolaridade, uma vez que o acesso a informação em escolas, universidades e em leituras somaram 62,5% das mulheres entrevistadas. Conclusões: Destaca-se a importância dos Setores Públicos da Saúde e Bem estar Social na orientação ao planejamento familiar e educação sexual, bem como um maior número de campanhas públicas que abranjam este tema de grande importância para a sociedade. Reforça-se ainda, a necessidade de mais investimentos na educação da população em geral, com ênfase na sexualidade na adolescência e no conhecimento do uso de contraceptivos.     Atas de Saúde Ambiental - ASA (ISSN 2357-7614)2017-12-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/article/view/1617Atas de Saúde Ambiental - ASA (ISSN 2357-7614); v. 5 (2017); 157-1712357-7614reponame:Atas de Saúde Ambientalinstname:Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas (FMU)instacron:FMUporhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/article/view/1617/1268Copyright (c) 2018 Flora Cordeiroinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCordeiro, Flora2018-11-08T15:02:53Zoai:ojs.fmu.br:article/1617Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/indexPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/oai||asa.revista@gmail.com2357-76142357-7614opendoar:2018-11-08T15:02:53Atas de Saúde Ambiental - Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas (FMU)false |
