Melanotan II log

I wasn't sure exactly where to put this, but since it involves pinning I figured the steroid forum would be the best place. If any mods want to move it feel free.

Just for some background. I am 160lbs. Type 3 skin (If I don't tan or go outside I get WHITE, but if I tan I tend to darken and not burn. Before starting this I was still a little tan from tanning for 3 weeks. It has been about a month since I've been in a tanning booth. I will be injecting 0.5mg every day until my 10mg is gone and I will go from there. I wanted to use a lower dose because I'm not in a hurry and I don't want to get too dark too fast. I am not planning on getting any sun other than a few short walks outside to my car and whatnot. That way I can tell if it is really working on it's own.

Day 1:
Injected first 0.5mg of MT2 in the afternoon. Within minutes stomach started to hurt. Not a sick feeling but just hurt a little. I thought it was in my head but it didn't go away. I ate food a while later and it went away for a minute and came back. Later I took some pepto and it went away. Looking back, I believe I had some flushing too.

Day 2:
Injected in the afternoon. Within minutes noticed my stomach hurting and I was a little flushed. I drank some pepto after a while and that helped. It didn't bother me as much as the day before, but didn't copletely go away. I think I'm already feeling minor sexual sides but it may be in my head. Seem to be a little more sensitive. No 4 hour hard ons yet though.

Day 3:
Injected right before bed. Stomach started hurting within minutes. I didn't take any pepto and I was still able to fall asleep normally. Definetly sexual side affects. I had dreams that invovled banging an ex girlfriend. And every time I woke up at night (I wake up a couple times every night) and in the morning, I had a big stiffy.

Day 4 (today):
Haven't injected yet. I will be injecting before bed now to minimize stomach effects. I seem to already be a little darker. That might be in my head but I don't think so because I was starting to get white again from not tanning and it seems to have started to reverse. I should know in a few more days for sure though. I notice a few new freckles on my forarms that weren't there before (at least I don't think they were) and soem of my freckles seem darker. They were already dark to begin with so it isn't a major change. I will be keeping better track of them now. So far I'm really happy with it.

Sounds just like my experience w/ MT-II.

My rats love the stuff. As a pale irish rat, color isn't something that comes easy. But once I started them on it, they looked like they were refugees from Cuba.

Great color, and noticed a lot more attention from the females.

Just looked in the mirror in the bathroom and definitely a couple new spots on my arms. They don't bother me though. Also I'm definitely a little darker. It's not just in my head. I wonder about some of the crazy dosages they post up some times. Maybe it's because I am naturally a little darker but when they say 1mg a day for 40 days for loading, I feel like I would be black.

 

[txbondsman]

it will not work on it's own. It isn't a colorant. It has to have UV to make it work.
MJ, use the search feature at the top of the page for MT2, you'll find threads on it over on C&C more than here I believe...
There's much to know, you need to read some threads and ask more questions. I don't want you to have a bad experience, it can be, but doesn't have to be with correct knowledge of how to use it and what can and does happen and the remedies.

From what I've been reading all over the web sun is not required, it will just accelerate the process.

For instance this quote from melanocorp.com's faq page:
"If you decide to take MT2, there are basically two phases that you will go through. The first is called the "loading phase", where you will take an injection every day until you reach the color that you like, which usually takes 3-4 weeks. After that, you will go into the "maintenance phase" where you will take an injection once or twice a week just to maintain your color. If you decide to get in the sun or a tanning bed, your color will darken dramatically. If you decide to stop taking it completely, your color will last for about three months."

Notice that they say IF you decide to get in the sun. As in, it will work without it. And I assure you that I am not crazy and I have already gotten a little bit of color without tanning or going outside.

Ya I don't like tanning beds. I would prefer natural sun. I just never have time to tan enough in the sun unless I was using something like MT2 where every ounce of sunlight matters.

Also, txbondsman, if you are correct, then if I get no sun for the next 3 weeks I should not get any darker and the day I do get some sun I should get a lot darker in one shot from having MT2 built up in my body. So, me waiting to get some sun, for the sake of science to see how this stuff works, shouldn't hurt me in the end. Either way I will get a tan.

Actually just found a better quote from melanocorp's faq:

"Do I need to go in the sun to see results?

It depends on your skin type. If you are skin type 1 or 2, you will probably need a low or moderate amount of sun exposure before your skin color changes. If you are skin type 3 or above, you should start to notice results without having to go into the sun."

 

[txbondsman]

I can assure you, unless your a type 3 skin or higher, you need UV to see anything. You did say that you can tan fairly easily, you may see something, but it won't get very dark. Most type 3's and higher, don't use MT2, they tan w/o the expense.

I've used it for 2 years now, and used to be a mod on a board that the FDA took down because the company didn't label their product "not for human consumpion, experimental use only", similar to the AG Guy's labels. Their product was the best on the market and was American made, they were selling tons of it and I personally think that had more to do with it than anything....

you slipped that post in, exactly, that's more accurate..
