Dreams are produced by the subconscious (unconscious) mind while the conscious, waking mind rests in sleep. Dreams can be affected by physical conditions, including all of the hormonal cycles. Although the pineal gland produces melatonin, which regulates the metabolic "clock" and cycles of sleep, there is no evidence suggesting that the pineal gland is directly connected to dreaming.
