“…Data analyzed were from the 2006 PNDS [ 8 ], inserted in the 5th project phase MEASURE DHS (Demographic and Health Survey). The DHS is a global program that analyzes and provides data from low- and middle-income countries, focusing on the health and nutrition of women and children, and it is the most comprehensive Brazilian data source regarding sexual and reproductive health [ 16 ]. In the 2006 edition, 15,575 women of childbearing age between the ages of 15 and 49 were interviewed.…”

High fertility rates among disadvantaged subgroups are a public health problem because fertility levels significantly affect socioeconomic conditions and a population’s welfare. This paper aims to analyze the sociodemographic, behavioral, and reproductive factors associated with fertility rates among Brazilian women aged between 15–49 years. A Poisson regression was used to analyze data from the 2006 PNDS (Pesquisa Nacional de Demografia e Saúde da Criança e da Mulher), which evaluates socioeconomic, demographic, geographic, reproductive, behavioral, and chronic disease variables. The results show that the following characteristics are positively associated with an increase in the number of children born: being aged 20–24, residing in the North, being nonwhite, not being in paid employment, having lower education levels, having lower socioeconomic status, being in a stable union, having the first sexual intercourse before the age of 16 and having the first child before the age of 20. Thus, it is important to implement efficient family planning policies targeting these subgroups in order to improve life conditions, reduce inequalities and avoid the adverse outcomes of high fertility.

“…For decades, women's movements across the Americas, with a strong presence in Brazil going back to the 1980s, have pointed out the lack of access to contraceptive methods, poor sex education, little information on women's rights and moral issues related to the patriarchal mentality that obstructs (and often denies) a woman's right to engage in sexual relations and plan her reproductive life as she sees fit. This can be seen in the results of demographic health surveys (DHS/PNDS), from 1996, and other studies made in subsequence decades, showing unmet demands for contraception (Coutinho et al, 2015;Lacerda et al, 2005;Hakkert, 2001). Women living in poverty are especially vulnerable to this; during the Zika epidemic in Recife and Belo Horizonte, for example, women of higher socioeconomic status reported having greater control over their reproductive wishes, including access to contraception (Marteleto et al, 2017).…”

The emergence of Zika virus in 2015 challenged conventional ideas of mosquitoborne diseases, tested the resilience of health systems and embedded itself within local sociocultural worlds, with major implications for environmental, sexual, reproductive and paediatric health. This book explores this complex viral epidemic and situates it within its broader social, epidemiological and historical context in Latin America and the Caribbean. The chapters include a diverse set of case studies from scholars and health practitioners working across the region, from Brazil, Venezuela, Ecuador, Mexico, Colombia, the United States and Haiti. The book explores how mosquito-borne disease epidemics (not only Zika but also Chikungunya, Dengue and malaria) intersect with social change and health governance. By doing so, the authors reflect on the ways in which situated knowledge and social science approaches can contribute to more effective health policy and practice for mosquito-borne disease threats in a changing world.

Os objetivos deste estudo foram analisar as taxas específicas de fecundidade em adolescentes e a tendência temporal, nos estados do Brasil e Distrito Federal, de 2008 a 2017. Estudo ecológico de tendência temporal. Os dados foram coletados no Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS), segundo faixa etária, de 10 a 14 e de 15 a 19 anos. A tendência foi calculada por regressão de Prais-Winsten, com nível de significância de 5%. Para a faixa etária de 10 a 14 anos, a maior taxa ocorreu em Roraima em 2016 (8,7/1.000 mulheres adolescentes) e a menor no Distrito Federal em 2017 (1,3/1.000 mulheres adolescentes). A tendência foi estável em 13 estados e no Distrito Federal e decrescente em 13 estados. Para a faixa etária de 15 a 19 anos, a maior taxa ocorreu no Acre (126,8/1.000 mulheres adolescentes) em 2008 e a menor no Distrito Federal em 2017 (38,5/1.000 mulheres adolescentes). A tendência foi estável em sete estados e decrescente em 20 estados e no Distrito Federal. Os resultados reforçam a importância da assistência em saúde voltada para adolescentes.
