( Boivin, DB; Boudreau, P; Lespérance, P; Moderie, C; Shechter, A, 2021)
"In a double blind and placebo controlled study designed to investigate the effect of melatonin administration at 13:00 hr on menstrual characteristics, prolactin, and premenstrual syndrome-like symptoms during simulated eastward travel, it was noted that melatonin reduces or alleviates the stress associated with the simulated travel."5.09Melatonin and the reduction or alleviation of stress.

( Boivin, DB; Boudreau, P; Lespérance, P; Moderie, C; Shechter, A, 2021)
"The nocturnal secretion of plasma melatonin was determined under dim to dark conditions in eight patients with prospectively confirmed premenstrual syndrome and in eight age- and menstrual cycle phase-matched normal control subjects."3.68Altered waveform of plasma nocturnal melatonin secretion in premenstrual depression.

"Seven PMDD women who indicated insomnia during LP, and five controls, spent every third night throughout a complete menstrual cycle sleeping in the laboratory."1.38Nocturnal polysomnographic sleep across the menstrual cycle in premenstrual dysphoric disorder. ( Boivin, DB; Lespérance, P; Ng Ying Kin, NM; Shechter, A, 2012)
