Melanotan 2 First Time User Log
After many years of bodybuilding and burning easily during sun exposure I have decided to use Melanotan 2 this Spring/Summer to attempt to get my first ever tan.
I received my Melanotan 2 in the mail but am waiting for Bacteriostatic water to reconstitute it to arrive by mail, once it does I will begin using this product.
I am Type 1 skin, very fair, many freckles, never tans, and burns at the drop of a hat.
I will be loading this product for probobly 3-4 weeks before I will begin consistant sun exposure. I will likely take .25mg for my first dose see how I react and increase to .5/day for the first week and then 1mg/day there after.
Week 1: .25mg first dose
.5mg/day
Weeks 2-4: 1mg dose/day
Dosed at night prior to bed.
Once I begin tanning and achieve my desired color I will likely decrease the dosage to .5mg twice a week or maybe less depending on how my body reacts.
Anyone who has used this product please provide me with some feedback or advice as to my plan and what I should expect in terms if results.
I have attached a current picture of my skin please let me know what I can expect in terms of results and time frame.

Hey, good to see someone in the same boat as myself.
I just started mine. Did 1/4 iu for 4 days, then 1/2 iu for last 2 days, so far. So 6 days in. Only noticed sides have been flushing, but not too bad. Been using Benadryl so haven't noticed any nausea.
I don't think I'll go higher than 1/2 iu a day.
I'm going to load for 2 or 3 weeks before I begin tanning.
Same skin type as you, pasty white, lotsa freckles, burn 'n peel, so I'm really looking forward to having a decent tan for the 1st time in my life.

i never understood why people run this ed. You only need to the day you tan @ .5mg.

Skinny, it didn't work that way for me. I tried tanning without loading and it just didn't work. I had to have some build up in my system before I could go to 2-3 times per week shots. And, you don't have to use it before you tan. It stimulates the production of melanin, if that melanin is in your system whenever you tan (the next day, two days later etc. ) then you'll still get results. Just my experience.
Once you've loaded ( I did with .5 mg shots for first 25 days this time around) you can go to .5mg shot 2 times per week and maintain as long as you are still getting sun/tanning.

Your skin type looks a lot like Spencer's. You might want to peruse his log.
Cheers

While this may be an option for some, some of us aren't going to get a "base tan" period. I'm one of them. I tanned 4-5 days per week for over a month using high strength beds and as many minutes as I could take (i.e. I burned several times and kept going) and didn't tan at all- seriously, nothing. As soon as any redness died down I wasn't holding any new color.
But, if I load with mt2 for 3-4 weeks at .5 mg/day 5 days per week, I begin tanning as soon as I have my first session or two. That's the whole point. Some of us don't produce enough melanin to tan, so, it builds that up and whalla, tanning ability.
After the "load" I'm on .5 mg 2 days per week and that's plenty and I get sun or tan whenever and stay tan.

DO NOT USE HIGH DOSES WITH YOUR SKIN TYPE!!!!
I urge you to just cruise on a maintenance dose of .25 or .5mgs EOD combined with a little patience and UV exposure...
I used MT2 for 7 days once and got dark freckles all over my face and chest..they disappeared upon cessation but you have way too many freckles to be toying with this compound...
sorry..but dont let your vanity get in the way

I have the same skin type as that Spencer guy (there is a link to his log on a previous post) and I would expect the same results as he did considering the similarity in our skin type. I will do my first dose at either .25 or .5 mg and see how I react and then likely do .5/day for the first week, see how I react to that then up it to 1 mg/day and run that until I get the desired tan and then drop to a maintenance dose. I will be doing my first shot tonite and will keep good notes on this log and everything is of course subject to change, but thats the plan to so far.
