It is not recommended to take melatonin during pregnancy. It is advised to focus on improving sleep hygiene by following certain practices such as adopting relaxation techniques, maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, creating a relaxing bedtime routine, and avoiding stimulating activities before bed. It is also important to avoid excessive intake of stimulants like caffeine, alcohol, or drugs, and to engage in regular exercise to promote deeper sleep. Consulting with a healthcare provider for safe treatment options during pregnancy is recommended.
