The sexual life of women undergoes various modifications throughout life, from the discovery of the sexual act to gestation, as well as the transition to menopause. In view of the foregoing, the present study aims to evaluate the satisfaction of sexual activity versus the number of pregnancies and the use of medication of employees of the Public Health Foundation of Vitória da Conquista - FSVC.This is an epidemiological and cross-sectional study, with a retrospective and descriptive character and a quantitative approach.The sample consisted of 100 women, whose age ranged from 20 to 45 years.The interviewees answered a questionnaire structured by the research project, which contained information on socio-demographic and socioeconomic aspects such as: marital status (single or married), age and number of pregnancies. We used the Elder Abuse questionnaire: A multinational Prevalence Survey (ABUEL) for the analysis of sexual interest, the WHOQOL-BREF. In our study we did not find significant values to associate with sexual dysfunction in our sample, however, it is worth remembering that care and special attention are needed for those women who reported having had sexual problems and loss of libido / gestation.
