using baby powder caused this woman to have cancer?

Question

Taken from UniLad which I understand isn't a reputable source but I haven't researched it on another site. What do you make of her claims?

I apologise for the advert in the middle.

Answer

Its because of the talcom powder I believe? Now everyone has changed the formula to just cornstarch.

Answer

J&J products are proven to be unhealthy. There are NUMEROUS cases like this and people have been awarded millions and millions in damages.
I thought this was common knowledge. It's not new.

Answer

I believe its just a claim,  and something  to blame it on. How many of us used baby powder as a child and Didnt  get ovarian cancer ?   I believe there  might be the talc that has a link to cancer.  But to fully  blame it on that is a bit much.  
But not for nothing, if i had ovarian cancer the last thing  on my mind would be how to make money.  Thats one of the most aggressive  cancers  in females, with a high  risk of coming back.

Answer

Well shit 😂 I used this stuff for dry shampoo.

Answer

Yes I have known this. The talcum. Don't let then breathe it in either

Answer

The company has already lost several similar cases, including verdicts of $72 million, $70 million and $55 million. And it faces multiple federal class-action suits in the matter, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.
   
J&J, which has repeatedly denied the connection between talc and cancer and rejected the suggestion that it should have warned consumers, said in a statement that "we deeply sympathize" with anyone affected by ovarian cancer.
   
But the company said it would appeal the verdict, citing a separate case that it won in March and two other dismissed cases that "further highlight the lack of credible scientific evidence behind plaintiffs’ allegations."

Answer

My grandmother used baby powder for decades and she died of ovarian cancer in 2016. I heard about this lawsuit on the radio and I immediately thought of her. It's a class action lawsuit that I believe is still ongoing, if this woman was awarded money by Johnson & Johnson then they obviously aren't blameless here, there's proof to back this woman's claims.

Answer

I had heard about this awhile ago that use of J&J baby powder products are linked to ovarian cancer or something. I don't know if where (basically labia use) was impactful or if people just used it on under arms orelsewhere  changed the rate.

So not unheard of.

Answer

It's true and it's been known for years that J&J baby powder can cause cancer and infertility, it's just taken a while for the news to really break out. Just like the aluminum in your deodorant which is linked to Alzheimer's, the fluoride in your water and toothpaste that is linked to fluorosis, increased lead absorption, cancer, etc.

Answer

Its true. They have corn starch baby powder for girls now
