[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s helpful to think of it as what it is: a hormone. It’s easier to imagine that there could be long term impacts of hormone therapy on a toddler/young child. As a parent that scares me and is enough not to use it until and unless long term studies are done to understand how it impacts the body. And as others have mentioned, I don’t like the idea of giving unknown and unregulated amounts of hormones to anyone let alone my kids. I’d like to see medicine find a way to test the levels of melatonin in the body at certain times of day then determine an appropriate, prescription dosage based on individuals’ needs.[/quote]
