give detailed report on what your calling "dark", check your gums and tongue too please. Do you mean dark brown, or a "darkening to blueish, bruised look" or what.

Now, we're going back to square 1 Swolio, I want to know:
1)weight
2)skin type (after you've checked on a link, I use Google, don't freakin guess)
3)hair and eye color
4)tanning history. Whether you tan easily, burn couple of times then can tan, etc. All those....

HOld off tanning until you get the right dose for your bodytype. You are using too strong of a dose there. You may have to take a break of about a week or two so - no injections, no tanning - to level things out.

It's barely noticeable. They look dark pink, like normal except, darker. They're not blue or purple or anything like that. There are no spots on my gums or tongue.

Tanning will not make a hyperpig problem worse, IF this is what it is, he hasn't responded yet, let's hope for the best. Hyperpig is due to too high a dose for your body type, trying to get tan too fast is the culprit, and getting bad advice or none before starting. Also, loading is just the opposite for MT as it is with gear, you 1/2 the reccommended daily dose, then work up according to how you body is responding. I have posted before, MT is a very personal peptide, some peeps may use the same amount for the same time, but it's pure coincidence. Nothing more.

You can expect areas to darken unevenly, you regulate that by SPF and length of exposure to UV in those areas, while lengthening the exposure to the lagging areas using a lower SPF.
If it is hyperpig, reduce dose or stop completely, the coloring will diminish in time, how long depends on the severity. I have seen people who just reduced the dose and it went to tollerable, like a very slight bruise to the lip, to the other extreme where their tongue looked like a Chows, and they had to discontinue use totally and it took 3 months or more to finally subside.
Knowledge and patience are the key, wonderful stuff if done correctly.

good, you don't HAVE a problem it seems. You'll want to keep checking ed to see that it's not getting worse. Cover your lips and face with SPF for awhile till the rest of you catches up. You being a type 3 and 212, you should be able to do the 1g ed loading and stay there, maintance will be 2-3x's ew, depends on th eamout of sun/UV that you get. The charts have 2gs for maintence, I've NEVER seen anyone who needed or wanted that much. If you did drop to the .5g and your seeing that kind of tan, I'd prolly just see where that took me, type 3's just get way, way dark fast, rarely experience any problems and they also tan to a degree w/o sun where others can't, so use some precaution, but you should be fine. Latinos will be asking you questions in Spanish in no time, I do not kid.

According to the calculator on the melanotan board, I can load with over 1mg ED. But as I do with AAS, I start with the lowest possible effective dose which is why I chose .5mg ED for loading.

Good advice on the SPF. I'll do that.

If your 200lbs about 2mg a day is max dose. I do agree that above 1mg will give you a permanant woody. I reconsitute the 10mg vial, preload ten syringes, freeze what i'm not going to use and inject 1mg anytime I will be exposed to sunlight. Keeps me dark for months.

I must be a lucky exception because I have not done a single shot for maintenance since my last injection at the day 20 mark back in late April and I still have all my color.

(I also took like 5 days off from loading around day 12-17 because I was sick.)

I ordered another vial for my maintenance phase back in May and haven't opened it yet.

I tanned evenly too. Nothing was darker/lighter than another part of my body. (except my tan line that I worked to keep)

Here's a question for the gurus...

Accutane and melanotan.

I know accutane makes you burn since it increases sensitivity to the sun.

Would melanotan help in this situation? If I take a low dose of accutane to keep my skin clear would melanotan still be as effective in keeping me dark?

Assuming accutane is necessary as a last course of action.
