Resumo(s)
Os métodos contraceptivos foram desde sempre uma preocupação para a o ser humano. Desde o antigo Egipto até aos tempos modernos foram observados cuidados com a possibilidade de concepção sendo que nos últimos séculos esta preocupação se expandiu também para a transmissão de doenças sexualmente transmissíveis. A descoberta dos Contraceptivos Orais na década de 60 do século XX, veio, não só possibilitar um melhor planeamento familiar como também melhorias nos vários efeitos associados com a menstruação que diminuem a qualidade de vida do sexo feminino.
Neste trabalho, para além da frequência de utilização de Contraceptivos Orais, foi aferido o conhecimento que a população feminina alvo deste estudo tem sobre alguns efeitos benéficos e sobre a influência da pilula na variação do peso. Após análise de resultados foi permitido concluir que a pilula é o método contraceptivo mais utilizado e que as utilizadoras opinam de forma consistente com a literatura em relação à diminuição do fluxo menstrual, das dores menstruais e da acne.
Existe também uma discrepância entre a literatura e a influência indicada pelas inquiridas na variação do peso com a toma de pilula.
Nas considerações finais, fica em evidência a homogeneidade de conhecimentos mesmo entre as consumidoras de contraceptivos orais e as consumidoras de outros métodos, revelando que o esforço feito na educação e informação da população está a ter efeito.
Contraceptive methods have always been a concern for the human being. From ancient Egypt to modern times the possibility of conception was always a preoccupation and in the last centuries this concern has been expanded also for the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases. The discovery of Oral Contraceptives in the 60s of the twentieth century, came not only to provide a better family planning as well as improvements in the various effects associated with menstruation that diminish the quality of life of women. In this work, besides the frequency of use of oral contraceptives it was measured the knowledge that the female population of this study have of some beneficial effects of the pill and its influence on the variation of body weight. After analysis of the results it was allowed to conclude that the pill is the contraceptive method with a higher rate of use and that users opine consistent with the literature concerning the reduction of menstrual flow, menstrual pain and acne. There is also a discrepancy between the literature and the influence indicated by respondents in the variation of weight with usage of the pill. In closing remarks , is highlighted the homogeneity of knowledge among consumers of oral contraceptives and other methods, revealing that the effort in educating and informing the population is having a good response.
