| Sumario: | The challenges presented by lesbians and bisexual women to access public health services in Cuiabá, State of Mato Grosso, are analyzed. Fourteen participants were interviewed, selected by snowball methodology and initiated by theoretical saturation. The interviews were recorded in digital audio, transcribed and thematic analyzes were carried out. The main barriers identified werethe invisibilization of lesbian and bisexual sexual orientations with their affective and sexual practices, their delegitimization through practices of violence and reception that led to non-access to the health services sought, non-welcoming and dehumanization. Overall, the findings are effects of heterocisnormativity present in daily health care, which in the experience of the participantswere presented in the invisibility of women who do not envisage motherhood, in the violence from the discourses of correction and abnormalization of sex orientations and affective experiences and gender of women. participants. |
