description Here we review published data from experimental and clinical international studies examining pathogenetic effects of melatonin upon using programs of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF); highlighting various viewpoints on its biological action as a regulator of circadian rhythms: on the one hand, the inhibitory effect of melatonin on pulsating secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone was considered, thereby achieving a contraceptive effect; on the other hand, its ability to induce the secretion of human chorionic gonadotropin ensuring ovulation process, was discussed. We also review the data on melatonin acting as a highly active antioxidant. While using melatonin as a metabolic supplement in IVF programs, its positive effect on oocyte morphology and quality of fertilization, embryo division was observed. Moreover, we also highlight the results of studies examining melatonin-related effects on quality of fertilization and embryo division after adding it to culture medium. Such effects demonstrated dose-depended pattern. Taking into account the data of the analyzed publications, adding exogenous melatonin to culture medium may represent a new strategy for personalized approach to improve outcome of IVF programs. Its effectiveness should be further investigated and considered for introduction within the framework of pregravid preparation.
