- Abstract
Objective: to verify the online scientific production on men's health care under the light of the reflection on its social determinants in the scope of collective health. Method: this is a bibliographical, integrative review type study of qualitative, descriptive and exploratory approach, carried out in the Virtual Health Library (VHL) and on Google Scholar, within the time frame from 2005 to 2019, developed between January and May 2019. The studies were analyzed in six phases, being presented in the form of figures and summaries. Results: social determinants were found to be largely responsible for the inequity in the access to health services. Men have difficulty in recognizing their health needs, masking their weaknesses and not considering health prevention as a predominant criterion in their lives because they do not perceive health care as a male practice. Final considerations: the need for men to reflect on masculinity in order to understand the compromises to their health was observed.
