Melatonin possible side-effect
Question:
I have been taking Melatonin for about 4 months now and have noticed many subtle effects such as more strength in the gym for my workouts, an increase in lean muscle and a marked improvement in my sexual abilities. I am a fifty year old male and am wondering if this is somehow all related to melatonin increasing my testostrone levels. The one negative I have noted is that I am breaking out in acne. This would also indicate (I think) some drastic change in my hormones. Has any one else had this occur? Could someone with more of a medical background than I, comment as to why a fifty year old man would suddenly develop teen-age skin problems?
How much are you taking? I have increased to 9-12 mg and am noticing similar effects, think the immune system is working a little better also. There is supposed to be some GH release from taking it so I wouldn’t be surprised to see such things. I am in my mid forties. — Articles: Melatonin, Folate, Tryptophan, etc.; Discount Source List, http://www.quake.net/~xdcrlab/hp.html, the SpringBoard ULTRANET: Ultrasound Technology Graphic Hot Links http://www.quake.net/~xdcrlab/Ultrasound.html
