Talcum Powder Causes Ovarian Cancer – What About The Babies?

Lately it seems like you can't watch TV without seeing a commercial for some sort of class action lawsuit. From bladder mesh failure to drugs side effects, the list is growing.  The most recent one I saw claimed talcum powder was responsible for ovarian cancer in women. 

More specifically it named Johnson's baby powder as the culprit. What I find interesting is that I have yet to see or hear one word of concern for the millions of babies who are exposed to this product. Not only that, why is the product still available on the market if it poses a threat to women's health? I hardly think just slapping a warning on the label suffices. 


With the alarming increase of class action lawsuits, it makes me wonder if the bureaucracy agency charged with regulating products and drug safety are doing their job? Could it be that they knew about the dangers of these products and drugs but chose to ignore it for a price? I don't know if my mother used talcum powder on me when I was a baby but I do know I personally used Johnson's baby powder on both of my children. They both appear to be in excellent health, but should I be concern that they may develop cancer from the exposure?


I am not sure how this works, but it seems to me that if talcum powder is responsible for women developing ovarian cancer, then it stands to reason that it should also be a cause for concern for babies as well. Unless they want me to believe that talcum powder discriminates between adults and children I have to believe that babies are also in danger of developing some sort of cancer. Either that or talcum powder is not really the culprit for causing ovarian cancer in women. Something to think about. I’m Just Saying. I got issues – what about you?
