This study deals, for the first time, with the relationship between Violence and Sexual Difficulties in the puerperium and also the role of puerperal depression in this relationship. In fact, to date we have not found any studies evaluating this association. Therefore, although Sexual Difficulties and Violence are prevalent problems in the pregnancy-puerperium cycle, with serious impacts on the quality and even the integrity of women's lives, there is a lack of studies on the relationship between these aspects. Another positive aspect of the study is that it reinforces the importance of assessing sexuality, violence and depression up to 18 months after childbirth in a group of low/middle-income women treated at a public health service. As a rule, sexuality, violence and depression are issues that are often neglected in the care of women in public services for various reasons. The study is important because it is unprecedented and addresses sensitive issues and associations that have been little studied.
