Context: The study addresses the issue of violence against women. It focuses on health problems related to violence. It demystifies that violence is not a problem exclusive to private space. On the contrary, it is a public issue and requires society and public authorities to act to curb and eliminate violence against women in the Brazilian scenario. To discuss violence against women in Brazil is to discuss culture and the role that the Brazilian woman has occupied since the colony and which occupies in contemporary times. Objective: To analyze the symptoms and health problems of women with a history of domestic violence. Place: women in temporary shelter at the Center for the Appreciation of Women in Goiânia (CEVAM). Methodology: This is an experimental study of a qualitative and interpretative nature. We used a bibliographical and field research, with interview application in two groups: Control, formed by 12 women who did not suffer domestic violence and who were waiting for consultation at the Gynecology Outpatient Clinic at Hospital das Clinicas; and Experimental, formed by 12 women victims of domestic violence who were provisionally sheltered in CEVAM. Results: The issue of violence against women is an issue that has been in constant debate. The subject researched demanded attention and priority in the agenda of discussion of different public policies. This was because the bibliographic study revealed that the subject is transversal, multidisciplinary and intersectoral. Therefore, we understand that health is not absence of disease, which we verified in the cases of women who participated through their reports with this study. Absence of disease in the reported cases would have been to live without violence. The data show that most women who sought health care were not oriented or approached in relation to the subject. The way practitioners approach violence against women can in some way strengthen the invisibility of the situation and violate rights. Conclusion: The woman should receive a qualified and ethical care from the professionals and when they do not receive they are victimized again. Despite advances in relation to the attention paid to women victims of domestic violence, the prevention of violence to reduce its sequelae has not been satisfactorily achieved. This may have as one of the causes the precarious and inadequate way of approaching health and / or social professionals. Such precariousness may be related to the lack of financial investment to implement and implement essential actions in health policy for women and strengthen the network of attention, protection and coping. The study is relevant because it presents data that allow a greater understanding of domestic violence in our context, since it supports the analysis and visibility of rape and discrimination "of the female". In addition, it is a vehicle for denunciations and points out the role of women with testimonies that reveal yet another face of violence.
