Violence is commonly considered a social problem whose approach is restricted only to public policies, so its impact on health has been seldom studied compared to the magnitude of the problem. However, in the case of violence against women, it has been identified that it can harm their physical health, thereby promoting the emergence of various mental, chronic and infectious diseases. Given this scenario, the objective of this article was to analyze the impact of violence against women in the development of the diseases mentioned above.
