Talcum and baby powder products have been linked to ovarian cancer
Thousands of women have filed lawsuits against Johnson & Johnson® and other manufactures of talcum powder. If you or a loved one were exposed to industrial talc or used cosmetic talcum powder and got diagnosed with ovarian cancer, you may be entitled to compensation.
The Risks
According to the American Cancer Society report, talc contains asbestos in its natural form, a cancer-causing substance. Several studies that have been conducted, state that when talcum powder is regularly applied to the genital area, there is an extremely higher risk of developing ovarian cancer. According to their research, studies have shown talc that does not contain asbestos, may be linked to increased cancer risk. The National Institute of Health ran a study that investigated the use of talc products, revealing a modest increased risk of ovarian cancer for women who used talcum powder when consistently applied to the genital area.
