Melatonin and test levels

[Hope]

Hi all,

I want to know the effects of melatonin on test levels based on proper research(anecdotal experiences are also welcomed).I use melatonin and feel groggy next day even less than 1mg dose.

May I suggest that you also look at the research on sleep cycles as well. When I take melatonin, each cycle appears to be longer and deeper (I have an app that gives a rough estimate) and if I wake up in the middle of a deep cycle, I'm groggy much of the day. This happens without melatonin as well of course, but not as much.

Getting up when the body wakes to go to the bathroom (assuming it's just a little before the alarm goes off) or sleeping just a little longer does wonders. There are a few of apps that will help find the right cycle length for you. Good luck!

Then you do not need it.
at that dosage bare minimum should not effect test levels. Need to work on proper sleep hygiene and stress management before taking anything. With out know vital information, you are just farting in the wind so to speak.
