Plaintiff Mathew Goodman alleged that the Trojan Ultra Thin condoms he bought in New York contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which have been linked to higher cholesterol, low birth weights, and cancer, Reuters reported.

The complaint seeks at least $5 million to be distributed to purchasers of Trojan condoms in the US, Reuters reported.
