      • Is it better to use peppermint alone or in combination with rosemary or lavender? No study has tested peppermint with rosemary or lavender in combination, in people or in animals, so the synergy claim is a hypothesis. Of the three, only rosemary oil has a published human trial — 100 patients over six months, where hair counts rose in both the rosemary and 2% minoxidil groups with no significant difference between them (with no placebo arm, this does not show they are equally effective) — while peppermint and lavender have four-week mouse studies only.
