No link between talc and ovarian cancer, study says

Thousands of lawsuits are looming in courts across the country against companies accused of failing to warn consumers about health concerns related to talcum powder, but a new study alleges no significant link between the powder and cancer.

It's widely used in cosmetic products like baby powder and adult body and facial powders, but talcum powder has come under fire recently in high profile court cases with concerns that women who use talc-based powder around their genital areas may be at risk for ovarian cancer.

A new study suggests no statistically significant link, but researchers say questions remain.

The study, one of the largest on this topic to date, was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
