I don't know if my answer is right, but if baby powder causes cancer, they would of taken it off the shelves ages ago. From my personal point of view, baby powder does not cause cancer.
There is little or no research saying baby powder causes cancer. If it does, then the chances would be near astronomical because baby powder is very commonly used, with, as far as I know, no cases of cancer.
(It is more likely that cases of cancer in patients who have used baby powder is pure coincidence.)
