“…15 In Brazil, sterilization is a very common means of contraception even in the general population, with rates being as high as 57% in women in the late reproductive years (40-49 years). 15,19 Our results confirm other Brazilian studies regarding age and number of children, with younger women showing a greater intention to have children, as well as women with less children. 11,16,[20][21][22] However, in the present study, women whose partners were also HIV-positive had less desire to have a child than the ones with a seronegative partner, an association not found previously in Southeast Brazil.…”

“…24 We observed previously a similar trend in women from Pacoti. 25 Second, in the study population, younger age at sexual debut was associated with a higher number of sexual partners in life: 32% of the women who initiated sexual life before 16 years of age had at least three partners in life, while this proportion was significantly lower among women who initiated sexual life later (17.1%; P < 0.001). 14 Third, a higher number of sexual partners in life was the most important risk factor for the presence of HPV infection in our as well as in other studies.…”

“…In fact, in our study population, only 8% of women consistently used condoms in the last 12 months, and the use of another contraceptive method was the main reason for not using them. 25 Data from the NIS study show that the use of oral contraceptives was not an independent risk factor for high-risk HPV infection or cervical disease, differently from variables related to sexual behaviour. 28 Sexual behaviour in that study was different among oral contraceptive users, non-contraceptive users and in non-users of contraception.…”

“…In Goiania, found a prevalence of 19.6% for Chlamydia trachomatis infection in 296 adolescents, of whom approximately 70% were assintomáticas 31 . In the State of Ceará, in research with 592 women, found that age less than 19 years was a risk factor for STD 32 . Being young was also a risk factor for STIs in a multicenter study of pregnant women conducted by the Ministry of Health, the chance of infection in pregnant women under the age of 20 years to present was OR=2.1 (95%CI 1.3-3.5) 24 .…”
