%X Objective: Analyzing the scientific production in the ten-year period related to knowledge about contraception in adolescence. Method: To reach the proposed objective we opted for the choice of the integrative review (RI). The search for primary studies took place in September 2014 and included 13 articles. Results: Studies have shown that most teens are aware only of the condom and oral and injectable contraceptives, also showing strong relationship between low education and the young age, with no use of the methods. Conclusion: Young people begin their sexual activity increasingly early, which has provided a gradual increase access and to the knowledge about contraceptive use. But still, there are many uncertainties in relation to contraceptive methods, requiring investments in sexual education of adolescents.
