Domestic violence against women is a human rights and public health problem that affects between 15 and 71% of women in the world (World Health Organization, 2005). Uruguay has a prevalence of 27.7% of domestic violence against women, predominantly intimate partner violence, but its effects on mental health have not been studied with a clinical method. Objective: to quantify the frequency of depression and suicidal ideation (SI) in women victims of intimate partner violence and to estimate the association with sociodemographic variables, moment of violence and pregnancy, excluding other causes of depressive symptoms. Method: case-control study with users from the Centro de Salud Jardines del Hipódromo in Montevideo, 30 cases and 28 controls. We applied short WAST, clinical interview, Depression Inventory and Beck Suicidal Ideation Scale. Results: 56.7% of cases present depression vs 14.3% of controls. The Odds ratio for depression in cases vs controls is 7,846. The frequency of IS is 20% of the cases and 3.6% in the controls and that of depression + suicidal ideation is 17% of the cases. The presence of depression and IS is independent of the rest of the variables except marital status (x2 = 19,408a, p <0,001). Single, separated and / or divorced women have more cases of depression compared to married or in free union: 81% vs 19%. Conclusions: intimate partner violence is a high risk factor for depression and suicidal behaviors.
