Objective: to evaluate the state of mental health in second semester students of parallel medicine “F”. Method: Descriptive observational. Results and conclusion: From the statistical data collected in the survey conducted on the 26 second semester students of parallel medicine “F” UNIANDES it has been evidenced that they face challenges and risk factors that may affect their mental health, such as the complexity of studies, adaptability to a new environment and intense emotional experiences due to the separation from their comfort zone. It is hoped that the results of this research will provide important tools for the occupational physician, teachers and authorities of UNIANDES, in order to make informed decisions about the management and prevention of mental health in medical students.
