Objective: This study aimed to describe the therapeutic itineraries and critical routes unveiled in the discourse of sex workers regarding access to health. Method: This is a descriptive, exploratory, qualitative study conducted in a prostitution house with 12 female sex workers. Interviews were conducted, analyzed under the Collective Subject Discourse method. Results: The itineraries reveal care practices performed from individual experiences, and the search for professional health care, carried out in the private sector, due to agility in care, decreased exposure and stigmas. Critical routes emerged from the removal of professionals from public health services, as well as the experience of vulnerable situations. Conclusion: The therapeutic itineraries are permeated by practices of individual, autonomous care and the search for attention to private health, presenting critical routes resulting from vulnerability to violence and infections. |
