Several pieces of scientific evidence, published by the National Cancer Institute, Brigham and Women’s Hospital (Boston MA), and other highly respected agencies, organizations and universities, have found that Talcum Powder use, specifically on or around the genital area, may put women at an increased risk of ovarian cancer and other hormonal cancers.
Research studies on the links between Talcum Powder use and Ovarian Cancer include:
According to “Genital use of talc and risk of ovarian cancer: a meta-analysis” and “Genital powder use and risk of ovarian cancer: a pooled analysis of 8,525 cases and 9,859 controls”:
Women who used talcum powder on their genital area are about 30% more likely to be diagnosed with ovarian cancer than women who have not.
The National Center for Health Research analyzed research studies on ovarian cancer risk and talcum powder exposure, and has stated that talcum powder use and ovarian cancer are heavily linked.
The research organization also found that a study that found no links between talcum powder and ovarian cancer was actually funded by cosmetic companies themselves.
The highly debated issue of talcum powder exposure and ovarian cancer risk is being left to the courts, where we have seen significant settlements awarded to victims of talc powder use.
Controversy has surrounded Johnson & Johnson due to claims that their talcum powder products may cause serious and life-altering health problems.
Baby powder produced by Johnson & Johnson has been linked to ovarian cancer and mesothelioma.
Researchers believe these injuries to be caused by the talcum powder.
Talc companies have marketed the mineral as “pure” or “organic” but fail to ensure the quality of their product.

As a result, some talcum powder contains harmful impurities, namely asbestos, a known carcinogen.
Inhalation of asbestos can damage the lungs over time and lead to fatal complications.
These allegations have resulted in Talcum Powder Ovarian Cancer Lawsuits and Talcum Powder Mesothelioma Lawsuits to be filed against Johnson & Johnson for failing to warn about the risk for cancer diagnosis in relation to its talcum powder products.
If you or a loved one used Johnson & Johnson’s baby powder, talcum powder, or other baby powder products, and subsequently developed ovarian cancer or mesothelioma, you may be eligible to file suit.
