No. It is more likely just to give you vomiting and diarrhea, which you really don't want during labour! It is a myth that castor oil brings on labour and is strongly advised against by doctors and midwives. Besides that, it tastes horrible
There is no scientific evidence to support the claim that castor oil induces labor or causes your water to break. It is not recommended to use castor oil to try to bring on labor, as it can cause dehydration, diarrhea, and potential complications for both the mother and the baby. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider before attempting any methods to induce labor.

No. Castor oil can in some cases help start labor when you are fully gone.
While castor oil can technically induce labor, it isn't recommended. Castor oil can cause dehydration and other unpleasant side effects, such as nausea and vomiting.
A doctor will never tell you to drink Castor Oil. There are no studies that show Castor Oil will induce labor or help your baby flip from the breech position.
If you vomited after taking castor oil, it's possible that not enough of the oil was absorbed into your system to induce labor effectively. The effectiveness of castor oil can vary, and some women may experience gastrointestinal upset without experiencing labor induction. It’s best to consult your healthcare provider for guidance and alternative methods if you're considering inducing labor.
