ABSTRACT
Objective. To analyze the use of preventive services for
sexual and reproductive health (PSSRH) in adult women and
men before and during the Covid-19 pandemic and associated
sociodemographic characteristics.
Materials and methods.
Using the 2018-19, 2021 and 2022 National Health and
Nutrition Surveys, we analyzed information on performed
Papanicolaou and HPV tests, clinical breast examination,
mammography, prostate antigen and digital rectal examination.
We adjust multivariate logistic models stratified by sex
to explore the association between use of the PSSRH and
selected variables.
Results. Since before the pandemic, low
prevalence of diagnostic procedures has been observed, particularly
in men, a situation that worsened during the health
emergency. People with the most advantaged characteristics
presents greater likelihood of using these services. Likewise,
we observed gender inequalities in some characteristics.
Conclusion. The pandemic highlighted the need to improve
and strengthen the PSSRH to achieve greater efficiency.
