Objective:
to understand higher education students’ perceptions of sexual and reproductive health risk behaviours.
Methods:
a descriptive study following a qualitative approach was conducted, using Pender’s Health Promotion Model as a theoretical and methodological framework. A thematic analysis of the data obtained from different focus groups was performed.
Results:
participants consider that factors such as communication with their sexual partner, the ability to negotiate and a positive attitude regarding condoms are positive aspects that will encourage consistent use of condom. The embarrassment felt at the time of purchase, the reduction of sexual pleasure and the growing stability of the relationship are usually seen as barriers.
Final considerations:
the study was crucial to identify some strategies that will be considered in further health promotion programmes, namely peer education, and will help promote personal and social skills and the (re)organisation of healthcare services.

Objective:
To identify determinants of preconception preparation among women with planned pregnancies.
Method:
A cross-sectional study with a probabilistic sample of 264 women between 18 and 49 years of age who had or were undergoing planned pregnancies, and were users of two School Health Centers in the city of São Paulo. Analysis was conducted through univariate and multiple logistic regression of three variable blocks: 1) social and demographic characteristics; 2) sexual and reproductive characteristics; 3) preexisting health conditions.
Results:
Women with higher education, belonging to economic groups A and B, and older women with infertility were more likely to perform preconception training.
Conclusion:
Preconception care has a strong social determination, as women with more favorable social profiles are more likely to perform it. Experience with infertility is also instrumental in the likelihood of preconception care.

Objective:
to validate the technology of printed booklets on self-care for ostomized women's sexual and reproductive health.
Method:
a methodological study was performed with a focus on the construction and validity of a printed booklet. The content of this booklet was validated by 11 specialist judges/nurses, according to a Content Validity Index (CVI) equal to or higher than 0.80. Appearance was validated by nine ostomized women, according to an assessment of the difficulty and convenience of the educational material.
Results:
the booklet was validated by specialists, with an overall mean CVI equal to 0.87. Moreover, the target population showed 100% of agreement in terms of the adequacy of organization, writing style, appearance and motivation of this booklet.
Conclusion:
the educational technology in question was validated according to content and appearance, thus representing an adequate, reliable and easily understandable resource to acquire knowledge about self-care for ostomized women's sexual and reproductive health.
