DnrIf you are still in puberty (which I assume you are considering that you’re attempting “heightmaxing”) then I would strongly suggest just not taking it - for a couple of reasons. First off, that’s a pretty high dose of melatonin, recommended is 1-5 mg (1) and the second reason I say not to take it during puberty is cause of the research behind it.
To get your sleep right just do the basics (exercise, eat well, no phone and blue light before bed, etc.) and you’ll be fine. Don’t take shortcuts in life and put a bandage over the wound, fix the wound.
It’s sort of an iffy area as there is conflicting research but melatonin has been shown to actually inhibit puberty as it can affect the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis (2) (3), which controls pubertal development through key hormones that you’ve probably heard of (testosterone (T), estradiol (primarily 17β-estradiol, E2), and progesterone (P4)) (4).

So, in terms of the final verdict, just don’t take it.
