The pineal gland is a tiny endocrine gland found in the brain. It produces and secretes the hormone melatonin, which is a hormone that helps regulate biological rhythms such as sleep and wake cycles. The secretion of melatonin is inhibited by light and triggered by darkness.
1 In both men and women, the same part of the brain that regulates sleep-wake hormones (such as melatonin and cortisol) also triggers daily release of reproductive hormones.  The hormones that trigger ovulation in women and the sperm-maturation process in men may be tied into the body's sleep-wake patterns.
