Hi Guys,
So it is known that Aspirin blocks the synthesis of prostaglandins. If I remember correctly, it is PGD2 that causes hair loss. However it is known that PGE2 actually causes hair growth. As we know Ricinoleic Acid is about 90% of castor oil. It is not a PUFA and actually is mono-unsaturated.
As we know castor oil is a very popular hair loss treatment so there may be something there...
What is your guys' opinion of topical application of castor oil with oral aspirin to block synthesis of ALL prostaglandins? I don't know if this will work, but currently I mix 50% coconut oil, 37% castor oil and the remaining as vitamin E oil (Jason Vitamin E oil 32,000 I.U.). I don't take aspirin, but would consider it.
Thanks
