Lawsuits allege that some talc-based powders were contaminated with asbestos and that long-term use is linked to ovarian cancer. Those are allegations, not proven facts. This page explains what the lawsuits say, what a claim can cover, and how to start a conversation about your options in Florida.<\/p>\n<h2>What Talcum Powder Lawsuits Allege and Who They Are For<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"\/resources\/talcum-powder-lawsuits-florida\/\">Talcum powder lawsuits<\/a> allege that long-term use of some talc powders led to ovarian cancer. The lawsuits name companies such as Johnson &amp; Johnson. Johnson &amp; Johnson has denied that its talc products cause cancer.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The asbestos claim.<\/strong> Lawsuits allege some talc products contained asbestos, a mineral linked to serious diseases.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The cancer claim.<\/strong> Lawsuits allege that genital use of talc powder raised the risk of ovarian cancer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The science is still debated.<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/cosmetics\/cosmetic-ingredients\/talc\">U.S. Food and Drug Administration<\/a> says some studies suggest a possible link, but the evidence has not conclusively established one.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Other sources agree the evidence is limited.<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cancer.org\/content\/dam\/cancer-org\/cancer-control\/en\/booklets-flyers\/ovarian-cancer-fact-sheet.pdf\">American Cancer Society<\/a> calls the evidence limited and treats possible asbestos contamination as a major concern.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Testing is part of the debate.<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usp.org\/file\/usp-oral-comments-fda-testing-methods-asbestos-talc-and-cosmetic-products-containing-talc-2020\">U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP)<\/a> has published comments on FDA testing methods for asbestos in talc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC3621109\/\">published critical review<\/a> concludes the evidence does not establish that cosmetic talc causes ovarian cancer.<\/p>\n<p>This topic may matter to a woman diagnosed with ovarian cancer after years of talc powder use. It may also matter to a family member of a woman who was diagnosed or has died. If you&#8217;re caring for someone, follow their doctors&#8217; care.
