No Brasil, a incidência do câncer de mama e do colo do útero está altamente relacionada à falta de informação. É importante avaliar o conhecimento da população feminina sobre o assunto e, a partir disso, estabelecer estratégias para a diminuição das ocorrências. Assim, este trabalho visou avaliar o conhecimento de 294 mulheres- funcionárias de hospital, escolas e professoras- com idade entre 20 e 57 anos, sobre este tema, por meio de teste objetivo e questionário. Os dados revelaram que embora 89,11% delas procurava adotar condutas preventivas, ainda há dúvidas sobre formas de incidência e prevenção do câncer de mama e colo do útero. Aponta-se a viabilidade e aplicabilidade do instrumento (teste objetivo) como recurso técnico para planejamento de intervenções que ampliem o conhecimento sobre a doença e mudem a atitude da população na prevenção e detecção precoce do câncer de mama e colo do útero no âmbito da Saúde Pública.
