Sleep problems: You can try something as simple as Melatonin. Using sublingual form is best.Keep reg. bed & wake time. Make routine: warm bath /shower, aromatherapy, read, or gentle music. Sleep in dark, quiet, cool room w comfy mattress/pillows & no work materials or computer. Bedroom only for sleep & sex. No food 2-3 hrs, caffeine w/i 6 hrs, alcohol or smoking w/i 2 hrs of bed. Exercise at least few hrs before
