Resumen

Objetivo: Mapear la evidencia científica sobre las contribuciones de las redes de apoyo a la calidad de vida sexual durante la menopausia. Métodos: Se realizó una revisión exploratoria en siete bases de datos, además de literatura gris disponible en Google Scholar, la Biblioteca Digital Brasileña de Tesis y Disertaciones y el Catálogo de Tesis y Disertaciones, sin límite de tiempo. Resultados: Las redes de apoyo informales contribuyeron al acceso a la información, hábitos saludables y control de síntomas, pero mostraron debilidades en la comunicación efectiva, diagnósticos tardíos y prácticas medicalizadas. Las redes de apoyo formales favorecen el bienestar emocional, el placer sexual y las actitudes positivas hacia la sexualidad, pero mostraron limitaciones como prejuicios sociales, apoyo inadecuado y síntomas depresivos. Conclusión: El fortalecimiento de las redes formales e informales es esencial para un enfoque integral que promueva la calidad de vida sexual durante la menopausia. Contribuciones a la práctica: Los hallazgos de esta revisión refuerzan la importancia de la acción multiprofesional e intersectorial en la creación y el mantenimiento de redes de apoyo efectivas que acojan y guíen a las mujeres durante la menopausia.
