“…This is not anecdotal and can take several forms. Leaving aside those who define themselves as homosexual and for whom homosexuality predates incarceration, there are also women who have not engaged in a homosexual relationship before incarceration and who temporarily practice this new form of sexuality as a substitute for an emotional void (Joël, 2017). This sexuality is one of the practices that put incarcerated women at risk of STIs.…”

Purpose Incarcerated women are a vulnerable population in terms of sexual and reproductive health. In French Guiana, most incarcerated women come from unsafe environments and are incarcerated because of drug trafficking. Medical follow-up processes used in prison (medical assessment on arrival, and then two half-days per week upon request but without an obstetrician-gynecologist) does not allow for a thorough assessment of the impact of incarceration on women prisoners’ health to take place. In the absence of data, the purpose of this study was to describe incarcerated women’s experiences in relation to sexual and reproductive health. Design/methodology/approach Semi-structured interviews were conducted among French-speaking adult women who had been incarcerated for at least four months in a French Guianan prison. Menstruation, contraception, pregnancy, abortion, sexually transmitted infections and sexuality were described by means of interpretative phenomenological analysis. Findings A total of 14 women were interviewed. They suffered from menstrual cycle disorders, poor hygiene and menstrual insecurity. They appeared to have emotionally disinvested sexuality. However, intra-prison sexual activity existed for some (masturbation, conjugal prison visits, homosexual intercourse between fellow prisoners). Homosexual relations were a source of discrimination. Being pregnant while incarcerated was viewed negatively. A lack of knowledge about sexual and reproductive health and high-risk behaviors such as piercing and tattooing practices were widespread. Originality/value Incarceration is a vulnerable time for women’s sexual and reproductive health. Sexual activity exposes women to risks and discrimination that should be taken into account in a multidisciplinary approach adapted to the prison environment.

“…Dans d'autres, du fait d'un sentiment d'illégitimité de l'enquêtéÁe, d'une méfiance par rapport à la démarche de recherche, de la délicatesse de certains sujets (sexualité, maladie, croyances religieuse, relations familiale, etc. ), le temps permet à l'enquêtéÁe de se familiariser à l'enquête et de lever ses réticences initiales en faisant plus ample connaissance avec le ou la sociologue (Denizeau, 2021;Joe ¨l, 2017Joe ¨l, et 2012Read, 2018 ;Quennehen, 2019).…”

En France, contrairement aux Etats-Unis, l’usage de l’entretien répété a été peu discuté. Cet article propose de revenir sur les apports de cet outil, à partir des enseignements tirés de deux enquêtes menées sur des terrains religieux : la première consacrée à l’étude de l’évolution du rapport à la religion des détenu·e·s au cours de leur incarcération et la deuxième portant sur l’analyse des trajectoires de conversion de l’islam vers le christianisme. Ces expériences d’enquête rappellent la nécessité d’adapter nos manières de faire tant à l’objet de recherche qu’aux particularités du terrain. L’entretien répété n’est pas un passage obligé mais son utilisation témoigne d’un attachement à un esprit ethnographique qui essaye peu ou prou de se donner du temps sur le terrain. Sur les terrains religieux mobilisés dans cet article, son usage s’est avéré convaincant à plus d’un titre que ce soit pour gagner la confiance des enquêté·e·s, travailler la densité des données produites, la reconstruction de données biographiques ou la compréhension de processus en train de se faire. En outre, en multipliant les rencontres et ainsi les possibilités de croiser les données, le·la chercheur·euse se donne des garanties pour éviter myopie empirique et autres malentendus.
