AbstrAct Objective: To identify the opinion of health professionals for the realization of the National Policy of Comprehensive Health Care for Men. Methods: Exploratory/descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Sixteen professionals from the Primary Health Care in a city in the interior of Rio Grande do Norte participated through semi-structured interviews. Results: The subjects thought that the policy is relevant to work actions for the man. However, their formative process was on diseases care, fragmented and overly biomedical, discussing the development of health promotion practices. Other difficulty found is the absence of collective action and the lack of training to work with the male population. Conclusion: It is necessary to strengthen the rapprochement between man and health services. Municipal management should provide instruments for strengthening and encouraging full care to the man, contributing to their health/disease process
