National policy of integral care for women's health in Brazil: from genesis to contemporary challenges

Resumen

Following the demands initiated by the Health Reform Movement, the demands for policies that fully met women's health demands began to be increasingly present in the spaces of social movements, especially in the national and international feminist organization. In this sense, in 1986, the Ministry of Health created the Program for Integral Assistance to Women's Health (PAISM) in order to provide prevention and recovery of women's health at all stages of their lives. In 2004, the Program became the National Policy for Integral Attention to Women's Health (PNAISM),  proposing a set of guidelines aimed at humanization and quality in women's care. In this sense, through a bibliographic and documentary study, this article presents an analysis of the trajectory of pnaism constitution, also seeking to understand the possibilities and challenges put to its execution. It is perceived that the PNAISM, as a strategy of response of the State to the female demands constituted socially and historically, brings in its scope clear objectives about its purpose of intervention, but that do not materialize in its entirety because they are under the condition of unsatisfactory investments by that same State, as well as other social policies
