Abstract

Objective: to analyze the knowledge of women with endometriosis about the disease and family planning. Method: this is a quantitative, cross-sectional and descriptive study carried out in May 2021 with 20 women with endometriosis registered in a specific group on Instagram. A sociodemographic and clinical questionnaire and an instrument for assessing women's knowledge were applied via google forms. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data that occurred in the Statistical Package for Social Science, version 25.0. Results: although 70% of women know what family planning is, there was a predominance of those who have doubts about the disease (85%), who do not know which health service in the Unified System is responsible for family planning (65%) and who he does not know his right to family planning or in vitro fertilization (80%). Still, women with “some knowledge” of the disease predominated (40%). Conclusion: Women's knowledge about endometriosis and family planning is limited, being unknown related to the disease, access to health services and the social rights involved.
