About The Talcum Powder Lawsuit
Have you or your loved one developed ovarian cancer after using a talcum powder product?
If so, then you may have the right to seek compensation.
For over two decades, the American Cancer Society (ACS) has always maintained that talc powder could lead to cancer and other forms of serious illness.
Talcum powder is mainly made up of magnesium silicate, which is a common mineral used in a wide range of consumer products.
The mineral is mostly found in hygiene products.
Research shows that a significant number of women who have used talc powder are at a higher risk of developing certain forms of cancer, including fallopian tube cancer and ovarian cancer.
In its natural form, some talc powder contains traces of asbestos, which has been linked to different types of cancer.
Women nationwide have filed cases against the leading manufacturer of talcum powder, Johnson & Johnson claiming that the company’s baby and body powder cause severe cases of ovarian cancer when applied near the genitals.

The Link between Baby Powder and Ovarian Cancer
Scientific studies have proved that talc powder is linked to severe cases of ovarian cancer among women.
The link between talc powder and ovarian cancer was first discovered in the 1970s.
Various studies proved that minute talc powder particles would easily penetrate through the vaginal opening, move into the cervix and uterus, and continue traveling to the fallopian tube until they reach the ovaries.
After thorough investigations, researchers discovered talcum powder particles in the ovarian tissues of several women.
A few years later, a professor at Harvard University conducted and published a scientific study that established women using talc powder products near their genitals were three times more likely to develop ovarian cancer.
Over the years, many studies have been conducted, many of which established a significant increase in the risk of developing ovarian cancer among talcum powder users.
However, Johnson & Johnson, along with many other manufacturers, continue to oppose these findings.
Consequently, many of these products continue to be sold to unsuspecting individuals.
What to Expect When You File a Talcum Powder Lawsuit
In March 2019, a jury in Alameda County, California, ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay Ms. Teresa Leavitt compensation worth $29 million after the court established that asbestos contained in Johnson & Johnson talc powder-based products caused her Mesothelioma.
Ms. Levitt had been diagnosed with the condition in 2017.
Also, in July 2018, punitive and compensatory damages worth $4.7 billion were awarded to a group of 22 women in Missouri.
These women had accused Johnson & Johnson of failing to warn them about the dire risks associated with using their body powder.
All plaintiffs, in this case, had developed severe ovarian cancer.
These are just examples to demonstrate the possible outcomes of a talcum powder lawsuit.
However, it is good to note that mass litigation against big companies such as Johnson & Johnson can take some time, but that shouldn’t stop you from filing your lawsuit.
After all, you need justice.
The success of a talcum powder lawsuit largely depends on medical records, which your talcum powder lawsuit attorney will help gather.
Providing crucial information on time can help expedite the process.
After examining your medical records, your lawyer can easily tell whether there is a viable claim for compensation and advice you on the next course of action.
