I had read that in normal circumstances tyrosine hydroxylase is saturated by its substrate and that excess tyrosine results in octopamine production.Can you please skip L-tyrosine for a few days and check if you are better off without it?

You don't really need melatonin on "rare occasions" unless it's a multi-timezone jetlag or serious sleep abnormality situation (such as you are on a prolonged fast with elevated cortisol levels that inhibit melatonin production). In most cases, focusing on boosting serotonin (precursor of melatonin) levels throughout the day, will naturally boost melatonin at night, regardless of age. Our body works in a circle and bedtime is a part of it, not isolated event, so it's best to optimize the whole circle.
