SANTOS, Catiele dos; ROSO, Adriane  and  LISBOA FILHO, Flavi Ferreira. Contraception and adolescence(s): integrative review. Est. Inter. Psicol. [online]. 2021, vol.12, n.3, pp. 137-162. ISSN 2236-6407.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/2236-6407.2021v12n3p137.

The objective was to synthesize the results obtained in research about the contraception in adolescent population undertaken in the Brazilian context. Specifically, we sought to identify information about the use of contraceptive methods and gender inequities. This is an integrative review of scientific articles on contraception in adolescents, published from 2000 to 2019 and indexed in the CAPES Journal Portal. The review contemplated 32 studies. It was identified that knowledge of contraceptive methods among adolescents is precarious and the dialogue with their families, especially with "male figures" is weakened. gender inequity was evidenced in issues related to abortion, pregnancy and the use of contraceptive methods, as well as the use of the expression "gender" in the theoretical framework of binary gender, in most of the analyzed studies.

Keywords : sexuality; teenager; education; review.
