The narratives were analyzed under the genealogical perspective inspired by Michel Foucault. We highlighted fragments in the enunciation mechanisms that backs up a criminalizing and excluding territory.

Epub 19-Ago-2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.190146.

PALMA, Diana M. and ORCASITA, Linda Teresa. Health professional discourse on the sexual health of lesbian and bisexual women. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e170329. Epub Aug 15, 2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.170329. Although factors affecting the sexual health of lesbian and bisexual women are widely recognized, little is known about the reality in Colombia. Attitudes such as homophobia and heterosexism in healthcare services delay diagnosis and treatment and hinder access to services.
