    Cervical cancer is considered the most frequent pathology in sexually active women. There are several risk factors to suffer it; Among them is the use of combined oral contraceptive methods (ACO). Therefore, it was proposed to correlate the use of 9 contraceptive methods and the presence of 14 types of cervical lesions according to the Bethesda system, detected in the exfoliative vaginal civic cytologies of patients who come to health centers in the city. zone 3 of the Ministry of Public Health (MSP) and arrives at the Ambato General Teaching Hospital (HGDA) to be analyzed. Through a descriptive analysis of a sample of 272 patients from Zone 3 of the Ministry of Public Health, it is found that, 24.63% (n = 67) of them are the lesions; 4.0% (n = 11) with atypical squamous cells of uncertain significance (ASC-US), 17.0% (n = 46) with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), 1.1% (n = 3) with atypical squamous cells where a high-grade intraepithelial lesion (ASC-H), 1.8% (n = 5) high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), 0.4% (n = 1) with squamous cell carcinoma and atypical endocervical cells can´t be ruled out. Then, it was identified that the contraceptive method most used in patients is the injectable with 39.3% (n = 107), in addition it was determined that 17.0% (n = 46) of the patients had low-grade intraepithelial lesions (LSIL).

    This research project is focused on the evaluation of the quality of the Early Cervical Cancer Detection Program on a Primary Health Care Center in Cevallos, Province of Tungurahua, Ecuador, from June 2015 to June 2016. The research keeps an quantitative as well as qualitative approach through the modality of field research and review of the data. It uses a tranversal design during the period of time mentioned above. Collection of data was made through statistical tools like: surveys, interviews and guided observance, applied to health employees and women between 15 and 64 years old who came to the health center to make a Cervical Cytology Test. We used a non-probabilistic random sampling with a total of 214 patients as population study. In conclusion we show the presence of several errors on certain parameters evaluated like: level of coverage, patient recruitment, collection process, delivery of samples and delivery time of results. We also noted lack of knowledge in the personnel that was in charge of the execution of the research. These reasons made us to take the decision of set up a proposal of intervention based on continuos training and evaluation of the program.
