MELO, Izabella Rodrigues et al. LGBT population's right to health: contemporary challenges in the context of brazilian national health service (SUS). Rev. Psicol. Saúde [online]. 2020, vol.12, n.3, pp. 63-78. ISSN 2177-093X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.20435/pssa.vi.1047.

The Brazilian LGBT population's right to health received more attention as of 2004. However, as studies developed in the last ten years point out, these State policies are still undermined. This literature review enters this research scope considering the article "Homossexualidade e o direito à saúde: um desafio para as políticas públicas de saúde no Brasil" (Homosexuality and the right to health: a challenge for the health public policies in Brazil) to evaluate the changes in the LGBT population's healthcare between 2013 and 2019. We researched in the databases "Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde -Psicologia Brasil" (BVS-Psi), SciELO, and PsycINFO. Out of 81 articles, six of them fulfilled the inclusion criteria. How the socialization of health agents in LGBT-phobic contexts causes their practices to contradict the national policies for the protection of the LGBT population was questioned. The proposal is to strengthen educational actions to mitigate prejudices

Palabras clave : LGBT; Brazilian National Health Service (Sistema Único de Saúde); transexualizing process; right to health; integrative review.
