The theme was motivated by my experience as a pregnant woman during my first pregnancy. As a user of SUS health services, I observed several situations at the UBS, arising from the academic perspective of the Collective Health Course. It aimed to survey the public health services offered to women in the pregnancy-puerperal cycle in the city of Marabá/PA. This is an exploratory descriptive study, which had the partnership of the Municipal Health Department (SMS) of Marabá-PA. The result contributes to the development of a health education instrument, a flowchart to provide better information, knowledge, clarification and empowerment to women about the path to be taken in public health services during the period of the pregnancy-puerperal cycle. It is of great value to understand the flow of care in the city's public health network in order to provide women, during the pregnancy and puerperal cycle, with information on each level of care, since entering the UBS, and in medium and high complexity, the respect for the different services available and provided in each unit, contributing to a better autonomy and empowerment of women, enabling them to have prior knowledge about the health network.
