women with ovarian cancer may be more likely to remember using talc Other unmeasured health and lifestyle factors confounders may also be influencing the link What did the research involve This study used participants involved in the Nurses Health Study an ongoing cohort study Data was collected in three phases 1992-97 1998-2002 2003-08 This study combines the data from all three phases Cases diagnosed with ovarian cancer were identified through tumour boards - the US version of NHS multidisciplinary teams - and medical records Controls were identified though random digit dialling driver licence lists and town resident lists of residence Matching of cases and controls was by year age groups and region Interviews were conducted to identify potential ovarian risk factors that occurred more than one year before diagnosis for cases Controls were also interviewed Participants were asked whether they used talcum powder on the genital or rectal area sanitary products underwear or other areas regularly or at least monthly Information was also gathered on the type of powder used when they started using talc years used and the number of times talc is applied each month Lifetime di 29/05/2016 20:04 Talc ovarian cancer what the most recent evidence shows -

an increase in risk of a third compared with no use diagnosis However the study has important limitations and is not able to prove direct cause and effect Although this was a control study that made use of data collected as part of an ongoing cohort study talc use only seems to have been assessed after cancer The study says that subjects were personally interviewed about potential ovarian cancer risk factors that occurred more than one year before diagnosis There is therefore a possibility that women recalled their talc use inaccurately leading to misclassification of use The study also cannot determine whether the use of talc or ovarian cancer occurred first Additionally while the researchers attempted to control for various confounders that may be influencing the link it is possible these were not fully accounted for and other health and lifestyle factors may have been missed Another note of caution the researchers found even higher cancer risk with higher frequency of talc use and use of hormone therapy However these analyses were based on much smaller sample sizes For example the 2.33 risk increase for premenopausal women using talc for more than 24 years involved just 41 cases and 21 controls When subdividing the overall study sample into smaller groups based on different characteristics the resulting risk estimates are more likely to be inaccurate The most reliable figure in this study is the overall 33 risk increase that has used the full study sample simply assessing past talc use or not That being said the study's findings are in line with other reliable sources - the International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified genital talc as a possible carcinogen So far there have been mixed results from other studies assessing the link Further research in the form of quality prospective studies would be required to confirm this is plausible that talc could work its way up into the upper genital tract and have some type of biological impact A recent review by the American Cancer Society recommended that women use cornstarch cosmetic products instead Analysis by Bazian Edited by NHS Choices Follow NHS Choices on Twitter Join the Healthy Evidence forum Analysis by Bazian Edited by NHS Choices Links to the headlines warn Mail Online March 4 2016 Links to the science Cramer DW Vitonis AF KL Terry et al The association between talc use and ovarian cancer a retrospective control study in two US states Epidemiology Published online December 17 2015 Healthy Evidence forum 'Cause of depression I recently returned home from a 10 day break in the sun and on going to turn 8 replies (--) Postherpetic Neuralgia 2 di 29/05/2016 20:04
