Chemical Hair Relaxers Increase Risk of Uterine Cancer

You May Have a Claim if you have Uterine Cancer or Endometrial Cancer.

A study conducted by the National Institute of Health (NIH) found that women who used chemical hair straightening or relaxer products were at a higher risk of developing uterine cancer. Women who used these products may have more than twice the risk of developing uterine cancer compared to women who did not use the products. Though uterine cancer cases only account for 3% of new cancer cases each year, studies show that the incidence rates of uterine cancer are increasing in the United States, particularly among Black women. 

Many hair straightening and relaxer products contain carcinogenic and hormone-disrupting chemicals. Frequent exposure to these chemicals, such as phthalates or formaldehyde, could be contributing to the increased cancer risk.

The research found that women who reported using hair straightening products more than four times in the previous year were more than twice as likely to go on to develop uterine cancer compared to those who did not use hair straightening products.

Have you been diagnosed with or suffer from:

  • Uterine Cancer
  • Endometrial Cancer
  • Ovarian Cancer

It is important to talk to your healthcare provider if you are experiencing any of these symptoms.

In the study, uterine cases included diagnoses of endometrial cancer, uterine sarcoma, or other types of cancer in the uterus. 

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with uterine cancer and has previously used hair straightening or relaxing products, you may be eligible to pursue compensation from a chemical hair relaxer lawsuit.
