Choice of hormonal contraception by women assisted in primary care: limiting factors and fear
Abstract
Objective: To know how the choice for hormonal contraception occurs by women assisted in Primary Health Care. Method: Qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study conducted in a Family Health Strategy in the central region of Rio Grande do Sul between the months of January and March 2022. Twenty women aged 18-43 participated. The production of data occurred through interview composed of open questions, the enunciations were transcribed and submitted to thematic analysis. Results: The participants revealed the lack of option provided by the Unified Health System in the choice of hormonal contraception, as well as difficulties and fear when using hormonal contraceptives due to lack of professional guidance in Primary Health Care. Conclusion: The choice of contraceptive method must take into account the autonomy of women and health professionals who work in Primary Health Care must ensure the right to choose, minimize doubts, fears and taboos surrounding the hormonal contraception process. In addition, women’s health consultations should provide opportunities for health education, dialogue and knowledge exchange.
