Yes, people with ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) have a pineal gland, which is a standard part of the human brain responsible for producing and regulating the sleep hormone melatonin.
However, research shows distinct differences in the pineal gland of individuals with ADHD compared to neurotypical controls:
What the Research Shows
• Smaller Pineal Gland Volume: Studies using high-resolution MRI scans have found that people with ADHD tend to have a smaller pineal gland volume (PGV) on average (around 59.9 mm³ in some adult ADHD studies compared to 71.4 mm³ in healthy controls).
• Altered Melatonin Timing: Because the pineal gland helps control your biological clock, smaller volumes or altered function are often linked to a delayed circadian phase. Many people with ADHD experience a shift in dim-light melatonin onset (DLMO)—meaning their brain starts producing melatonin roughly 45 to 90 minutes later in the evening than usual.
• Sleep and Chronotype Links: This delayed melatonin release strongly correlates with an evening chronotype (being a "night owl") and higher rates of sleep-onset difficulties or Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome.
