Is it safe to take castor oil at 35 weeks pregnant and not dilated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Although castor oil might be safe when used for starting labor in pregnant women at term, it should not be used without the supervision of a healthcare professional. It is unsafe to use in pregnant women who are not at term since it might bring on labor too early.
