  Majority of research claimed that J&J talkum powder is safe?

    Basically, the best studies show no link e.g. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/2758452?mod=article_inline https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/27584... The American Cancer Association doesn't list talc at all when talking about risk factors for ovarian cancer: https://www.cancer.org/cancer/ovarian-cancer/about/new-research.html https://www.cancer.org/cancer/ovarian-cancer/about/new-resea... J&J is winning most of the cases in court, or having large verdicts overturned on appeal, but there are supposedly something like 38,000 cases out there and each one has an outside chance to end up being like the one they lost in Wisconsin state court which initially awarded over $4.69bn to 22 plaintiffs (reduced to $2.11bn on appeal).

      Do you think it really is a risk factor for ovarian cancer?
