Talcum Powder Linked to Ovarian Cancer

May 18, 2016Firm News,Product LiabilityWritten by Jeff Singer

Women who use or have used talcum powder on a weekly basis risk developing ovarian cancer at some point in their life. This statistic substantially increases when used on a daily basis.

Since talc products are not currently regulated in the United States, there are no clear warning labels or indications that this product can potentially cause long term and/or fatal effects.

Research states that when using a product that contains talc, the particles can travel through the female reproductive system and remain within the ovaries. These particles can linger in the ovaries for many years causing significant damage.

Talcum Powder cases can be complex and it is recommended that if you or a loved one has been involved in this type of situation, you consult an experienced attorney who has both the knowledge and resources to help you.
