%X Objective: To evaluate the impact of ostomy in the sexuality of an stomized individual. Methods: A descriptive
exploratory study with a quantitative approach, developed in an Integrated Health Center in Teresina/PI.
Eighty three patients participated, according to the inclusion criteria. Data were collected using a structured
form, stored in Excel 2010 and analyzed through descriptive statistics using chi-squared test. Approval from
the Research Ethics Committee CAAE No. 36551714.0.0000.5512 was obtained. Results: Three sections were
obtained. The first section, referring to the profile of the sample, includes sociodemographic features of patients
with intestinal elimination ostomy; the second section features their sexuality; and the third section lists the
sociodemographic characteristics and related to the characteristics of sexuality. Conclusion: Having an ostomy
influences many factors that contribute to the well-being of people. The change of body image changes the
psychic functions, influencing sexual activity.
