She’d had her ovaries removed, the pathology results were back, and they could not have been much worse. Berg had stage III ovarian cancer, and her prognosis was poor. Despite her 25 years as a physician’s assistant, Berg, then 49, knew next to nothing about ovarian cancer. Grappling with the “why me?” question, she studied the risk factors, finding just one that could apply: regular use of talcum powder for downstairs hygiene.Scientific research ties talc powder to ovarian cancer. Now Johnson & Johnson is facing a slew of lawsuitsSignal boost. My mom warned me about this when I was growing up, but I don’t see it mentioned often. Use cornstarch instead of talc, if you use anything.Welp, that’s terrifying.oh shit thoOmg i do this every day holy fucking shitThis applies to trans men and their packers as well. If you don’t want it getting all sticky use cornflour/starch, never talc. It’s cheaper here too. There’s no reason not to look after yourself.yo this makes so much sense??? My mom used baby powder like all the time and her ovaries got so messed up and swollen that she had to have an entire hysterectomyI learned about the danger of talcum powder in my training as an NFP instructor, that is how serious this stuff is!Yall need to see thisholy crap -- source link
