Major Side Effects Melatonin can affect the normal body production or the supplemental use of certain hormones. Blood levels of human growth hormone (HGH) may be increased, while luteinizing hormone (LH) may be decreased. HGH stimulates growth in children and helps to regulate metabolism in adults. LH is important in the development of eggs and sperm. Other hormones may be affected, too. While no serious results have been identified, laboratory tests for these hormones may be inaccurate if the tests are performed during the same period that melatonin is taken. Individuals who take melatonin should inform their doctors before having any laboratory blood work. Less Severe Side Effects Other side effects reported by individuals taking melatonin include: * Abdominal cramps * Confusion * Depression * Dizziness * Drowsiness * Fatigue * Headache * Irritability * Low blood pressure * Nausea * Vomiting
