- Abstract
This study aims to identify the user's knowledge and proposals about providing specific services towards men's health in Primary Care, the subject of few published studies. One hundred one men were interviewed in the 14 Family Health Strategy teams in an urban area of a municipality located in the state of Minas Gerais. The Thematic Analysis technique has been employed. Dissatisfaction concerning extended waiting periods for assistance, scheduling appointments, lack of empathy of health professionals, criticism about the absence of actions to promote health, dissemination campaigns, flaws in public administration, and active search for men's health services were identified; the gender issue reflected the social context of "being a man", with the health service traditionally organized from a maternal and child perspective, marginalizing the target audience and not including the masculinity dimensions.
