Melatonin/IVF

[lolly2019]

Hey all, after 54 days of this cycle, my bloods indicate I have ovulated and the clinic are starting me on norethisterone to begin ivf round two. I wanted to introduce melatonin but unsure when to. Do I wait until post pills bleed and injection stage or start now. I can’t find any information anywhere. I had it in my mind I’d start when my period came but now not getting one. So confused 😐

Hi lolly. Melatonin, as you probably already know, is sometimes recommended for women going through IVF who suffer with sleep problems. I would think it was OK to start when you want, but always check with your specialist beforehand, so that he/she knows what you are taking, and that they agree with it. Good luck and hope it helps if you do decide to start it. Diane
