Castor Oil starts the diarrhea two to six hours after drinking the oil. The contractions should begin shortly after that. Some midwives and mothers swear on this method and have repeatedly used this to conclude an overdue pregnancy.
Castor oil starts working quickly and usually begins to take effect as soon as it reaches the bowels. Many women use castor oil to induce labor, and contractions generally start just 1-3 hours after taking an oral dose of the oil. Some women respond more slowly, however, and the length of time taken for active labor to start does vary between individuals.
