I have heard a link of the use of talcum powder with ovarian cancer. How true is this? I remember years ago I used talc powder and other feminine higine products for a few months once and I definetly got allergic reaction as I bleeded in between periods. Once I stopped it all dissapeared. But now that I have heard its such a high risk factor it scared me. Ovarian cancer has no symptoms til late stages ufffff How paranoid we should be with this issue?

This is a very good site explaining all about how a doctor goes about screening you for ovarian cancer. If it's worrying you, you may want to have one of these screenings.
