    Regarding addressing the increased and darkened moles, do you recommend stopping for a while or just dropping the dose and continue tanning?

    very informative thread, thanks.

    I'd consider myself a type III skin.. fairly white but mostly due to lack of sun.. do tan okay if exposed to enough sun..

    so i'm thinking of dosing at 0.25mg ED while tanning in the sun twice a week (Sat & Sun)... once i get my desired tan colour, what dosage does everyone use for maintenance, like .5mg twice a week?

    also about 10 years ago i was using a tanning bed once a week, didn't get much of a tan but a heap of freckles appeared on my forearms... would that imply i have a heap of freckles on my body and possibly my face that i just can't see yet and MT2 will bring them out?.. has anyone with freckles on their arms/body used MT2 and found many more to appear else where, like the face?

    melanotan will bring out and make any skin blemishes, like freckles and moles, more pronounced . also even though your not going be tanning your dick, it may very likely change color as well

    Imho you don't even need it on a daily basis. EOD always works fine for me.

    I bet you would. We were referring to initiating it though. Maintenance I'll go maybe once per week.

    i'm thinking of jumping on some MT2... only 0.25mg twice a week before tanning...

    however i'm also about to enter week 2 of PCT (test E 12 week cycle)...

    does it matter that i'm doing PCT at the same time? any known interactions or anything with clomid and nolva?

    I've never had any problems in the past when using MT2 during PCT.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

    Wife and I started MT2 not too long ago without tanning bed. Maybe that was a mistake. We both noticed freckles, moles, blemishes and even the slight bags we had under our eyes get significantly darker. Created more freckles and moles. We have made the decision that we don't think this is the best peptide for us.

    We were doing a daily 200mcg.

    Erections at night, vivid dreams were there. The appetite suppressant that is talked about was not. She did not have the erections.

    Most folks quit after rapid overdosing, sad state of affairs research chemicals provide massive quantities of super-potent analogs that harm the masses. Ideally Melanotan 2 should be sold in 100-1000mcg vials for harm reduction as a little goes a long way. Hopeful you & the wife are well!

    We are totally fine. This guide says to use 250- 500mcg. https://www.peptides.org/melanotan-2-dosage/ You think we were using too much? Everything I read says to take more than we did. A little darkening of dark spots isn't a lifechanging thing, we just thought since it was noticeable, so we didn't want to continue.

    We reconstituted a 10mg vial with 3ml of bac and injected .06 daily on a .3ml syringe. That should be 200mcg. Guide on page 1 here even says 250-500mcg.

    Not sure what you mean by rapid overdosing when we underdosing any suggestions.

    What about the nausea? You didn’t get that? I was taking baby doses and getting terrible nausea. I also found out (from a doctor) that melanotan increase blood pressure acutely and is bad on the kidneys.

    Damn, sorry you landed on a such a misguided page funded by a vendor (who likely hired a cheap digital marketing agency to publish). Any guide advocating 1mg MT2 dosage is anywhere near normal is outrageous. It's not easily articulated how the underground vendors remain in business selling 10,000mcg vials (suitable for an elephant or large scale lab study) for research purposes only as if they provided an aliqot suitable for humans, it would blow some of their cover....

    As many users would become sick as a dog on such dosages, it's better to help folks avoid side effects via dosing low, ramping up & desensitizing to the drug over days-weeks. Dosing lower also helps mitigate the anxiety from rapid tanning of sun damaged areas such as freckles...as there should be an anticipated few days of cosmetic awkwardness as your mind warms up to the evolution of your tanning skin (moles darken exponentially compared to normal skin and derms would want to test for cancer).

    Unfamiliar with claims regarding kidneys (from a non-toxic water soluble protein drug), and have doubts about bp increase (as they're likely referring to an early bremelanotide study where they put large amounts within a nasal spray...which is a silly strategy to deliver a molecule larger than what would normally permeate the tissue).

    I'm feeling confused by your reply.

    Your sticky (* this very guide I'm typing in) says on page 1 at the very top to take a 500mcg dose, starting at 250mcg and ramping up. The guide I linked showed the exact same dosing as page 1 on this sticky. Our dose was 200mcg. 200mcg, not 500mcg or a gram.

    **** If you're saying my dosing was wrong I am asking what it should have been?? Everything I have read here and elsewhere says that I should have been fine.


    I had no nausea but I injected right before bed, like all guides suggested. Everything I did was rsearched here and elsewhere. I don't think I did anything wrong at all. I just think that it caused darker spots (freckles, moles, bags under eyes) to get darker than what I liked so we quit. I was imply stating the experience I had for others so they don't thing its wrong when they don't get a perfect tan and moles get more obvious and darker.

    Personally, I don't take a loading dose. I inject .25mg/250mcg of MT2 2-3times per week and get about 20 minutes/side of sunlight in the morning or evening several days/ week. I think some people try to rush the process and get too much UV exposure.

    As far as the timing of the MT2 injections, I inject just prior to bedtime.

    Also, after reading on line I can see why people develop kidney issues.

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/art...tion%20%5B6%5D




    The patient is subsequently admitted to the department of nephrology for further investigation. It was noted that the patient had an intense tanning of his skin and an additional investigation revealed that he had administered a total of 27 mg of Melanotan II subcutaneously within the last 6 months for the purpose of increasing his suntan. The patient self administrated Melanotan II 10 mg per injection twice within a period of 6 months and 7 mg 3 weeks before the admission to the hospital

    Beg your pardon, you're right - guides published more than a dozen years ago could stand to be revised. Like Mexican super meth once upon a time, super-potent melanocortins also increased in potency/purity - once it was common to sell melanotan 2 in packages of 5 vials...personally find it difficult to use more than 10mg in the course of a year (probably a me problem, getting old sucks). Apologies!
