Melatonin safe to use for insomnia?
Question:
A friend at work swears that melatonin promotes very restful sleep. Does anyone know if its safe to take while ttc? I am oh so very patiently in the 2-week wait, and waking up every night at 3:00 a.m. – fun. Also, any thoughts on valerian root? (which I do know does work for me, but I was told that it is an anti-inflamatory). Chammomile tea just doesn’t cut it.Restful help appreciated. TT

I love melatonin BUT it has been known to stop ovulation from occuring!!!! There are some great web sites on melatonin. DO a search and u will see some are about melatonin and reproduction. ~~* Best Wishes that all of your hopes and dreams will come true !! *~~ Cyndie DES exposure 1 Ectopic 2 miscarriages 1 surgery Just finished 3rd and last cycle of clomid..now trying VITEX http://members.aol.com/cyndarelaj/page/index22.htm

It helps but only if you take it occasionally. If I use it too much it don’t work.
