Nursing care in the sexuality of the postpartum women: an experience story

Abstract

Objective: To present the development of extension activity of education for undergraduate students in the health area, on health care and quality of life of puerperal women, with emphasis on sexuality. Experience report: A meeting was held through the virtual platform Google Meet, which sought to promote reflections on the experiences of puerperal women, their intergenerational care network and care related to sexuality in the postpartum period. The action was divided into five moments, merging theoretical contents and interactive dynamics, in a proposal of active educational methodology in a virtual environment. Thus, a space was built for reflections and discussions on the proposed theme, with the exchange of knowledge and learning of the undergraduates. Final considerations: The sessions allowed us to understand the phenomena that occur in the postpartum period, as well as the importance of professional care emphasizing the sexuality of postpartum women. The elaboration of knowledge through active methodologies implied the strengthening and acquisition of scientific knowledge and cooperation with the academic triad (teaching, extension and research).
