    Background: Gender violence is considered a public health problem that affects women with greater demand, due to a system of relationships of male domination over women, which results in physical, sexual and psychological harm through actions that cause alterations in the health and well-being of the victims. Objective: To identify gender violence and associated factors in students of the Faculty of Medical Sciences of the University of Cuenca. Methodology: A quantitative analytical study was carried out with a universe of 1786 students and a sample of 317 redesign students belonging to the Faculty of Medical Sciences of the University of Cuenca according to Pita Fernández's formula by strata.
