Fertility: A Look At Issues Surrounding Ovarian Cancer As Plaintiffs Claim In Lawsuit That Disease Is Linked To Talcum Powder
November 14, 2016 – – TheProductLawyers.com reports on fertility implications for women undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer.
According to cancer.net, fertility can be affected by a variety of cancer treatments including drugs such as Busulfan (Busulfex, Myleran), Carmustine (BiCNU), Chlorambucil (Leukeran), Cyclophosphamide (Neosar), Doxorubicin, (Adriamycin), Lomustine (CeeNU), Mechlorethamine (Mustargen), Melphalan (Alkeran) and Procarbazine (Matulane). According to the source, fertility problems that occur from cancer treatments usually occur through “damage to organs involved in reproduction, such as the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, and cervix” and “damage to organs involved in hormone production, such as the ovaries.”
More and more women are making themselves aware of the issues associated with cancer, particularly ovarian cancer, after thousands of lawsuits have been filed alleging talcum powder is linked to the deadly disease. Many women have claimed in suits against Johnson & Johnson that talcum powder is not only linked to cancer but that the company should be held accountable for its alleged fraud and negligence.
Johnson & Johnson has never issued a warning about their talcum powder products and has maintained that their products have no link to cancer.
Despite their stance, the company has lost three major lawsuits concerning the talcum powder products in which they were made to pay millions in damages to plaintiffs who claimed to have developed cancer after using them. Since the first suit was filed in 2009, over 2,000 women have filed lawsuits alleging the like.
These lawsuits are expected to grow and Banville Law is seeking to help those currently suffering. The firm has many years of experience fighting large pharmaceutical companies who have put dangerous drugs and devices onto the market, foregoing public safety for corporate greed. Attorneys at Banville Law want to assist those who believe they have been directly affected by the use of Johnson’s talcum powder. Affected individuals may be entitled to financial compensation and legal action. Banville Law is currently offering free consultations to individuals who qualify.
