Research on the use of 5-HTP for anxiety relief cannot be meaningfully summarized from the available evidence, as the single linked study does not investigate 5-HTP or its relationship to anxiety. The included study is a cross-sectional examination of birth satisfaction during the COVID-19 pandemic in Iran, which, while it touches on anxiety as a contextual factor, does not evaluate 5-HTP as an intervention. As a result, there is insufficient evidence in this set of studies to draw any conclusions about whether 5-HTP may or may not be helpful for anxiety, and readers interested in this topic would benefit from seeking out dedicated clinical trials or systematic reviews that directly examine 5-HTP supplementation for anxiety-related outcomes.
