Resumo: Studies related to leprosy give little attention to human affairs, feelings or experiences along the way, therefore, this paper aims to describe the effects leprosy has on the sexuality of leprosy patients and analyze the aspects which involve the sexuality of the bearer. This is a descriptive study with qualitative approach, developed at the “Centro Maria Imaculada”, which provides assistance to leprosy patients in the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation, in Teresina-PI. A series of semi-structured interviews was used as an instrument so as to produce data; they were analyzed according to Minayo’s Content Analysis. Analysis of the reports resulted in the emergence of four categories: changes in sexual activity after leprosy diagnosis, fear of diseasetransmission through sexual contact, feelings of inferiority, and changes in family’s daily life. The extent of suffering caused by the disease in the group of interviewed people was noticed, and so were the changes brought about in their sexual life caused by the disease, preventing bearers from experiencing an active sexual life, be it due to organic and/or psychological matters.

Trata-se de um estudo descritivo com abordagem qualitativa desenvolvido no Centro Maria Imaculada, que presta assistência aos portadores de hanseníase na prevenção, diagnóstico, tratamento e reabilitação, em Teresina-PI. Para a produção dos dados utilizou-se como instrumento um roteiro de entrevista semi-estruturada, os dados foram analisados de acordo com a Análise de Conteúdo de Minayo. As análises dos relatos culminaram no surgimento de quatro categorias: mudanças na atividade sexual após o diagnóstico de hanseníase; medo da transmissão da doença pelo contato sexual; sentimento de inferioridade e mudanças no cotidiano familiar. Verificou-se a dimensão do sofrimento causado pela doença no grupo de pessoas entrevistadas e as mudanças acarretadas em sua vida sexual ocasionados pela doença, impedindo que seus portadores vivenciem uma vida sexual ativa, sejam por problemas de ordem orgânica e/ou psicológica.Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima da Secretaria de Estado da Saúde de São Paulo2010-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/3622210.47878/hi.2010.v35.36222Hansenologia Internationalis: leprosy and other infectious diseases; Vol. 35 No. 2 (2010); 27-32Hansenologia Internationalis: hanseníase e outras doenças infecciosas; v. 35 n. 2 (2010); 27-321982-5161reponame:Hansenologia Internationalis (Online)instname:Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)instacron:ILSLporhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/36222/34526https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantos, Tatiana Maria Melo Guimarães dosCampelo, Cléber LopesCosta, Ilmara Airam daRocha, Silvana Santiago daVeloso, Laurimary Caminha2023-02-13T14:22:24Zoai:ojs.periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br:article/36222Revistahttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologiaPRIhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/oaihansen_int@ilsl.br || hansenologia.internationalis@gmail.com || periodicossp@saude.sp.gov.br1982-51610100-3283opendoar:2023-02-13T14:22:24Hansenologia Internationalis (Online) - Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)false
