Resumo: | Lesbian and bisexual women are an invisible minority when they’re seeking sexual health care services. Due to this invisibility within an ancient culture of heteronormativity, the sexual health of lesbian and bisexual women is often poorly managed by health professionals. Based on this assumption, this article aims to identify the difficulties in the doctor-patient relationship and assess the barriers to access faced by women who have sex with women. The study is a narrative bibliographic review, the survey of scientific publications was in the databases: Lilacs, PubMed, Medline and SciELO. Through research, it appears that the lower demand for health services is often associated with the existence of discrimination in health services and the lack of preparation of professionals to deal with the existing specificities. In addition, there is a lower frequency of gynecological exams, tests and breast cancer prevention among lesbian and bisexual women. Finally, it is necessary that more studies are carried out in order to put such difficulties in numbers and generate policies and strategies to improve gynecological care for women who have sex with women. |

Debido a esta invisibilidad dentro de una antigua cultura de heteronormatividad, la salud sexual de las mujeres lesbianas y bisexuales a menudo es mal gestionada por los profesionales de la salud. Con base en este supuesto, este artículo tiene como objetivo identificar las dificultades en la relación médico-paciente y evaluar las barreras de acceso que enfrentan las mujeres que tienen sexo con mujeres. El estudio es una revisión bibliográfica narrativa, la encuesta de publicaciones científicas se realizó en las siguientes bases de datos: Lilacs, PubMed, Medline y SciELO. A través de la investigación, parece que la menor demanda de servicios de salud se asocia a menudo con la existencia de discriminación en los servicios de salud y la falta de preparación de los profesionales para hacer frente a las especificidades existentes. Además, hay una menor frecuencia de exámenes ginecológicos, pruebas de Papanicolaou y prevención del cáncer de mama entre las mujeres lesbianas y bisexuales. Finalmente, es necesario que se realicen más estudios con el fin de poner tales dificultades en números y generar políticas y estrategias para mejorar la atención ginecológica a las mujeres que tienen sexo con mujeres.As mulheres lésbicas e bissexuais são uma minoria invisível quando buscam serviços de atendimento à saúde sexual. Devido a esta invisibilidade dentro de uma cultura milenar de heteronormatividade, a saúde sexual das mulheres lésbicas e bissexuais é, frequentemente, mal conduzida por profissionais da saúde. Partido desse pressuposto, este artigo tem como objetivo identificar as dificuldades na relação médico-paciente e avaliar as barreiras no acesso enfrentadas por mulheres que fazem sexo com mulheres. O estudo trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica narrativa, o levantamento das publicações científicas foi nas bases de dados: Lilacs, PubMed, Medline e SciELO. Através das pesquisas, verifica-se que a menor procura pelos serviços de saúde está, muitas vezes, associada à existência de discriminação nos serviços de saúde e ao despreparo dos profissionais para lidar com as especificidades existentes. Além disso, observa-se uma menor frequência de realização de exames ginecológicos, de exames de Papanicolau e de prevenção de câncer de mama entre as mulheres lésbicas e bissexuais. Por fim, faz-se necessário que mais estudos sejam realizados a fim de se colocar em números tais dificuldades e que gerem políticas e estratégias para a melhoria da assistência ginecológica destinada à mulher que faz sexo com mulheres.Research, Society and Development2021-12-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2360210.33448/rsd-v10i17.23602Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 17; e60101723602Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 17; e60101723602Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 17; e601017236022525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/23602/21352Copyright (c) 2021 Rodrigo Almeida Santiago de Araujo; Raquel de Santana Oliveira; Júlia Maria Gonçalves Dias; Gabriela de Queiroz Fontes; Thaís Serafim Leite de Barros Silva; Amanda Silvestre Santos Gonçalves; Alessandra Aleixo Albuquerquehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAraujo, Rodrigo Almeida Santiago de Oliveira, Raquel de Santana Dias, Júlia Maria Gonçalves Fontes, Gabriela de Queiroz Silva, Thaís Serafim Leite de Barros Gonçalves, Amanda Silvestre Santos Albuquerque, Alessandra Aleixo 2022-01-01T11:11:08Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/23602Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:42:24.946522Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
