What’s up with J & J Talcum powder?

Multiple $70 million verdicts and one in J & J’s favor. Juries running wild; or should J & J have warned women about the ovarian cancer risk from use of talc in their genital regions?

The cases involve ovarian cancer, the most deadly gynecological cancer of all. Often, the plaintiffs die before the case goes to trial. They cite 2015 studies by the Journal of Gynecological Cancer finding the use of talc increased the risk of gynecological cancer by 30-60%. Also, and devastating evidence to a jury, Doctors recently found talc in the cancerous tumors removed.

J & J used talc in its baby powder and shower to shower products for the last 35 years. The lawyers argue it should have realized the risk since 1980s.
