From the identification of epidemiological data on mental health, which classify women as the major carriers of depression, we will seek to discuss the gender approach at the time of diagnosis. As a methodology, this work was outlined as a case study that used ethnographic tools, among them the semi-structured interview, the participant observation and the field diary. After collecting all materials, a combined analysis was performed, defining categories. Thus, in this article, we sought to discuss the gender of mental health diagnoses and their implications for the diagnosis of depression in women.
