Baby Powder Causes Cancer?

You claim to be a lawyer, if you knew about this, why didn't you bring suit?

How long have you known about this? If you knew for a fact it causes cancer and did nothing, then you are as guilty as the company. Assuming this is even true.

I've been using Shower To Shower (the other J&J product) powder daily since I was 20, now 64......no problems.

The first talcum powder cancer lawsuit verdict was decided in February 2016, when a Missouri jury awarded $72 million to the family of a woman who died from ovarian cancer in 2015, who claimed that she used Johnson’s Baby Powder and Shower to Shower for 35 years for feminine hygiene.

Other lawsuits linking talcum powder and cancer are now being filed against companies for failing to warn about this baby powder danger.
Baby Powder Danger: Does Talc Cause Cancer?

The American Cancer Society estimates that in 2014, about 21,980 new cases of ovarian cancer will be diagnosed and 14,270 women will die of ovarian cancer in the United States alone. The exact number of these ovarian cancer cases that are linked to talcum baby powder use is unknown, but

The exact number of these ovarian cancer cases that are linked to talcum powder use is unknown, but meta-analysis of data pooled from eight separate studies found that out of 8,525 women diagnosed with ovarian cancer, nearly a quarter used baby powder after bathing or showering.

A Missouri jury ordered health products giant Johnson & Johnson to pay more than $110 million to a Virginia woman for allegedly failing to disclose the cancer risk from its baby powder and another product.

Lois Slemp, 62, prevailed in the case after suing the company when she was diagnosed in 2012 with ovarian cancer. She alleged that J&J concealed the possibility that talc in its baby powder and Shower to Shower products can cause cancer.

The case deepens J&J's legal crisis connected to talc. 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.

After three weeks of testimony in Slemp's case, a 12-person jury deliberated for 10 hours before delivering the verdict against J&J.

Amid concerns, why do we even have baby powder anymore?
“They chose to put profits over people, spending millions in efforts to manipulate scientific and regulatory scrutiny," said Ted Meadows, a Beasley Allen lawyer representing Stemp and other similar plaintiffs, in a statement. "I hope this verdict prompts J&J to acknowledge the facts and help educate the medical community and the public about the proper use of their products."

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.

This is the first I've heard of this. How is that even possible? If so, perhaps Jarod could bring a class action for JPP members. :palm:

Its easy money from the corps.....

It has been suggested that talcum powder might cause cancer in the ovaries if the powder particles (applied to the genital area or on sanitary napkins, diaphragms, or condoms) were to travel through the vagina, uterus, and fallopian tubes to the ovary.

Many studies in women have looked at the possible link between talcum powder and cancer of the ovary. Findings have been mixed, with some studies reporting a slightly increased risk and some reporting no increase. Many case-control studies have found a small increase in risk. But these types of studies can be biased because they often rely on a person’s memory of talc use many years earlier. Two prospective cohort studies, which would not have the same type of potential bias, have not found an increased risk.

For any individual woman, if there is an increased risk, the overall increase is likely to very be small. Still, talc is widely used in many products, so it is important to determine if the increased risk is real. Research in this area continues.

^This is typical Yoyo. Miscomprehends and/or distorts someone's post, then launches into a diatribe about a statement never made. To the point of lying, as in this post.

What a fucking loser.

Let me post what he said again, so the good people of the internet can see that Domer is a lying shit head.

Because I don't use the product and don't have ovaries much less cancer on them, nobrains.

Tell me shit head, how did I lie about what he said?
 
There are a few companies making talc-free dusting powder now. Talc is easily substituted with cornstarch or kaolin clay or tapioca starch or bentonite clay or aloe vera powder. I make use of the last 4 for my homemade soap and body butter...guess I should start making my own dusting powder, too...a lot cheaper.

Here are some commercial talc-free brands out there:

Gold Bond Ultimate
Jack Black
Burt's Bees
Farmaesthetics
Nature's Baby Organics
Crabtree & Evelyn

You fucking liar.

He said he hasn't brought suit because he hasn't used the product. It's called standing.

Why hasn't he used it or have cancer? Because he's a male and has no ovaries. He never said anything about the pain and suffering he never experienced. That's what YOU twisted it into.

Fucking illiterate moron.

What a fucking illiterate moron. He said he didn't have any talc clients.

Are you attempting to unseat Granule as the #1 Forum Dumbfuck? You're making some serious inroads here.

Lawyers don't need standing to bring a suit, only their clients need standing.

I can't believe how dumb you are.
