I love this stuff. Gets you darker, keeps you from getting burned (this is one of my favorite affects), the II version gives you a massive hardon.

Personally, I like Melanotan I better. I mean, I take it before going to the beach, or pool, and who wants to walk around with a massive boner (all joking aside). I also took a dose before going to a wedding. It wouldn't have been cool to have a boner then at all. Also, less nausea with the I version.

Damn cheap, and saves you money on a billion tanning bed visits. I can go tanning once a week and get dark as hell.

You KNOW it's working--what else can you get almost immediate visible results from?

I got a TON of comments on how dark I was the second time I did it (higher dose). Not all good, but F*ck haters.

I think it indirectly helps my skin clear up too. I can get more sun/tanning, which dries up oily spots (face/shoulders), which prevents breakouts.

Unfortunately, it degrades quickly, so you've got to use it up after reconstitution. I tried freezing some reconstituted in syringes, and it still seemed like it degraded after 3-4 weeks.

I've found success with dosing anywhere from 250mcg ED to 1mg ED. 1mg will get you dark QUICK. I usually opt for a lower dose. Maintenance can be acheived by taking 1-2mg every week after you've acheved your desired darkness.

I know others on this board have tried it! Post up some comments!

ive always wanted to try this but after hearing about all the "new moles" that appear out of no where i dunno...

and no one knows the side-effects from it, besides it getting you darker

but i still want to try it soon

What is the shelf life of m2 assuming you keep it frozen without reconstituting it?

Yeah< i had done some reading on it and kinda shied away from it after reading about the mole thing. I'm all for the jacked and tan look and monster wood, but don't want any moles.

I would like to caution any of those out there who hasn't tried melanotan 2. It can cause spontaneous freckles (or even worse, moles, as stated above) if you're prone to that side effect like I apparently am.

I did notice though, that I only got those freckles when I kept a steady dose, but didn't get enough sun. When I only dosed before sun exposure, the spontaneous freckles remained, but stopped occurring. I also went lower on the dose. 250mcg before sun exposure is plenty for me, and I have type 2 skin.

My sister couldn't stop laughing when I arrived to a family dinner dark as fuck, but with an "L" shaped freckle pattern on the right side of my face. A year later and the freckles - which were fucking dark as hell - are now much, much lighter and aren't really noticeable.

I wonder if it darkens scars?

Can definitely tell you are a lot darker now in the cutfest pictures.

I did a little reading on it this afternoon. Looks like ppl inject it. Is the research stuff also injected or is it oral like a lot of the other research stuff? I'd be a lot more likely to try it orally. Not crazy about the idea of injecting stuff that has never been officially approved and that I don't know for certain exactly what I'm getting from wherever I were to buy it from, etc.

I'd prob be more inclined to try the intranasal. I know they used to do some ph's that way back in the day.

I saw some posts elsewhere that you can do mel1 intra, but not mel2. is that really the case or can you do 2 the same way. 2 seems cooler w/ the whole mega wood benefit. that would be awesome. Like having Aspire36 back again!

So, I've done some research and found powder available out there. I read a few melanotan forums where guys have run experiments w/ 2 intranasally. It seems like the consensus is that it's just not as effective plus wastes powder.

So, assuming you go the pin route, what's a good amount to order to start w/? I see some kits for like $38, some for around 100. What's a good physical amount to order and what's considered a good price for it? Not asking for sources, just the going rate, so I know how to recognize a good deal.

Melonatan II - i Pay $35 for a 10mg bottle. mix with 100ius of bac water... take 5-7ius a day.. each day... for like 15 days or so... makes you dark as hell..

Also have noticed if you take daily and tan RIGHT AFTER injectin.. it speeds the tan up so much faster, its insane...

goodluck

Just tried to order from one place and they're checkout is messed up. Might try my usual place but they don't say what the purity is, so I'm a bit hesitant. Might hold off a bit til these checkout issues are fixed.

A little update. I got a hold of 20 mg. of Mel2 and found it didn't come w/ the bacteriostatic water. Being a little impatient and not being able to get any locally, I decided to mix up a nasal spray solution I found online.

According to what I was reading in a forum about it, the nasal spray is only 10% less effective than the sub-q injection. I put the solution into an emptied out nasal spray bottle to where each pump is .33 mg. of M2.

I figure I'll dose it this way at 2 sprays per day to equal .66 and by the time I'm done w/ the first 10 mg. I'll have received some bac. water and will do the sub-q route. If this seems really effective, I may just stick to it as it will be easier. We'll see.

Interesting. Definitely keep us updated on results.

Let us know if your nose turns super dark first.

I'd be worried about nasal lining, but I *know* people who have put way worse things up their nose and are fine.

What did you mix it with? Distilled water? Keeping it in the fridge, right?

I ended up w/ .66 mg. that first day, .99 yesterday before mowing, .99 today 2/3 before a 7 min tanning session and .33 afterward. Too early to tell much just yet, but I'm assuming results will start to show soon.

I got a cheap rate for by the min. tanning so I can just go like 7 mins at a time, having bought 40 mins for 10 bucks. I'll probably do approx. 7 min sessions for 6 days to get the ball rolling and see where I am at that point.

I ordered some bac. water from here and it shipped today, so I'll be able to go the injectable route once I go through the intranasal supply I'm doing now.

Okay, so I've been on the nasal spray for about a week and I do look darker than I'd normally get from very limited exposure. I was doing between .66 and .99 mg. per day. The solution is supposed to lose about 10% effectiveness but spare you any sides.

I think it's probably about right because I'm showing a pretty decent tan although before tonight I'd only done two 7 min. level 1 (100 watt bulbs) tanning sessions two days apart. I mowed the lawn and had just a little outside walking around time.

Usually I wouldn't be this dark and I'd probably have a bit of a burn. I've got no burn whatsoever, so that's nice. No nausea at all and no crazy wood, either, so the sides are nonexistant w. the nasal delivery.

The only knock I have against it is that you can't be sure exactly how much you're getting since it's a pump spray. Also, sometimes you'll get the post nasal drip effect, so some of it goes down your throat that way and would be degrading in the stomach. With all those imperfections, I'm pretty satisfied so far.

Tonight, though I mixed up my other 10 mg. in 1 cc of the bac. water that arrived yesterday. I had the gf guide me through the process and the stick really didn't hurt at all.

I went w/ .5 mg. since I know I'm getting a full dose this way and didn't want to get too much nausea my first time. I'm thinking I'll probably do a few more days at .5 and then go into the maint. dose of 1 mg. per week.

I think I'm supposed to draw out individual 1 mg. doses into syringes and refreeze them, but not sure. Lorken, if you can refresh my memory on that, that'd be good. Wish me luck w/ the pinning, guys.
