    Objective: To systematize the evidence on how sociodemographic factors, condom use, work characteristics, and lifestyle are associated with the presence of sexually transmitted infections in sex workers. Methodology: A qualitative study with an observational and retrospective design, categorized as a systematic review or publication review, with a population of 293 articles published during the 2016-2020 period in the databases PubMed, EBSCO, Sciencedirect, Lilacs, and Scielo, from which a sample of 30 articles was selected. The search algorithms used were “Factors AND sexually transmitted infections AND sex workers.” Results: The most frequent factors within each category were: educational level (OR 2.1 - 3.5) within sociodemographic factors; inconsistent or irregular condom use (OR 1.3 - 5.49) within condom use factors; the time spent in the profession (OR 6.04 - 61.27) within work characteristics; and drug use (OR 2.2 - 23.3) within lifestyle factors. Conclusion: The factors associated with the presence of sexually transmitted infections in sex workers are grouped into four categories: sociodemographic, condom use, work characteristics, and lifestyle.
