WARNING: If You Don't Stop Using This Powder, You'll Eventually Get Ovarian Cancer



Its been a routine for women to dust their private parts, underwear and sanitary napkins with talcum powder. It is a practice associated with cleanliness and freshness. Some people may sprinkle on powder after showering and never think much of it. But recent court cases have shined a spotlight on the possible link between women's regular use of talcum powder on their genitals and an increased risk of developing ovarian cancer. What is talcum powder? Talcum powder is made from talc, a mineral made up mainly of the elements magnesium, silicon, and oxygen. As a powder, it absorbs moisture well and helps cut down on friction, making it useful for keeping skin dry and helping to prevent rashes.
uggested 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. 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. Others Cancers Talc use has not been strongly linked to other cancers, although not all possible links with other cancers have been studied extensively. * Lung cancer Some studies of talc miners and millers have suggested an increased risk of lung cancer and other respiratory diseases. When working underground, miners can also be exposed to other substances that might affect lung cancer risk, such as radon. * Uterine Cancer One study suggested genital talcum powder use may slightly increase the risk of endometrial (uterine) cancer in women who are past menopause. Further studies are needed to explore this topic. * Stomach Cancer Some limited research has also looked at a possible link between inhaled talc exposure at work and other cancers, such as stomach cancer.
