Yeah, my stubble has gone darker as well. Not noticed it anywhere else. Not really a major issue to me though.

i've got it everywhere! even the roots on my head are coming through jet black!

the stubble isnt really an issue to me either- quite enjoying the designer stubble look actually! lol!

just a bit concerned about the longevity of it and the science behind it.

if anybody knows anything more i would be very interested in having a read!

cheers.

I had my first jab last night, was quite easy actually, although i was shaking a bit, first time i have injected myself.

I have been drawing with a 25 (orange) syringe and then getting rid of that needle and replacing with a 30 (yellow) syringe and then injecting with that one.

It does itch for a little while afterwards i have noticed and a bit of a 'hot' feeling in the face.

Yea the same is happening with me.I'm ginger and have a black beard now haha. The hairs on my head are starting to change now also, and thats over a week since my last dose. I guess its a good thing for me though.
Anyone know if the change will be permanent?

Melanin is present in the hair shaft as well as the skin, which gives the hair its dark pigment. MT2 is very likely to darken hair colour, effect will diminish gradually upon cessation, as per skin pigmentation fading.

What are your thoughts?


Interesting, and not something I had previously come across in my clinical data research. It appears that there are some that believe Clinuvel are being economical with clinical data and whilst this is plausable at this stage given that regulatory approval has not been sought, imo they would be committing corporate suicide by witholding vital negative clinical information from regulatory bodies and would be a sitting duck for liability lawsuits.

I was going to start a thread but then thought it may be better just to stick these in here...


Some pictures showing tanning progress.

The first pic is as it says, the middle pic is after 1 month of regular sunbed use and then the last pic is 3 weeks later after using MT2 and sunbeds.

I've got 40mg in me at the moment and I have an almost tan, there has definitely been colour change (more than I've ever experienced before) as I'm a type 1. But it's not the completely miraculous tanning drug I hoped it would be. I'm just going to maintain it with 2 mg a week and a few sunbed sessions and hope i get a full blown tan. The only side effect I got and I never realised it until I took this last week off was lethargy, I really was tired a hell of a lot of the time.

Good luck with your trial, and I hope we see some sunshine like we had in April so we can show off our bronzed bodies!

Personally i would up it to 0.5mg.

If you do the jab just before bed you should be able to limit how much you notice the side effects.


# I did my last jab 10 days ago after using a total of 20mg and i'm still getting the 'have you been on holiday' comments!

I agree with noname take a jab before bed so you dont experience the sides.

I did 0.25mg for day 1 and 2
incremented by 0.25mg every 2 days until I reached 1.0mg.

Im two days into my course of this stuff now i mixed 5ml with the 10mg, started off with .5ml which made me feel seriously sick. Baring in mind i took this midday so on the second day i took in the evening and just slept through the sides. Injecting it was no problem as sub q with the right pins is nothing! Hopefully this will give me good results as im type 3....

Ah, right. Well i've just left it in the fridge anyhow.

It's been nearly a month since i last used MT2, not sure when i will use it again but was'nt sure if i would still be able to use the current bac. water i've got left!?

Sorry to awaken this old thread!

Was just curious as to whether anybody felt much nausea the first time you used this and what was your dosage?

Thanks, sorry if I'm asking you guys to repeat things! Being female myself I was just wondering if there's any ladies who have used MT2 ... I'd be interested to hear if it had any effect on your libidos given the "state" some of the guys get in after using it!

Thanks

Nope, did'nt feel anything of note. I always had my jab just before bed.

I started off using 0.5mg for about 6 days and then moved up to 1mg for a few days and then 1.5mg for the final few days. I'm quite sure i could probably have started on 1mg with no real problems.

Taking it before I sleep was an idea I had too. I'm not too fussed about the other symptons but I really am not keen on experiencing nausea. If I sleep through it then cool! My worry is starting it and then feeling sick for days on end ... struggling to find a contraceptive that doesn't also ... but that's another story and a WHOLE other thread! lol

Just like to give some feedback....

I used a total of 20mg over a period of around 2 weeks.

Just wanted to give some feedback 'cause I was being such a scardy cat about the whole thing!

First jab was Friday night. Bit of a stingy sensation but other half very good with a needle! (Thanks Papa L!) Very weird, didn't feel anything for a couple of seconds then thighs went really hot and then whole body flushed with heat - I made me other half open the window I was so sweaty!!!

Anyway, had a little panic attack but once I had relaxed I had a couple of minor waves of nausea but nothing major. Had second one yesterday morning (close together but last night we were unable to jab as were staying with other half's parents). No nausea but wasn't particulary hungry all day.

Went to the beach and I feel asleep (for just over 2 hours!) - woke up burnt! Put plenty of after-sun on last night and this morning and wheras usually I'd still be burnt today - all tanned up lovely!

Have another 8 jabs left plus will be sun-bedding on Tues, Thurs & Sat! May even be able to get some pics up!

EDIT: Forgot to mention, will be using a total of 10mg in total over 10 days!

could you start off on 1.5 ml for a a period of 5 days? as that's how long I have before my holidays.

or could I spilt it up like .75 in the morning and .75 at night? would that be better?

The idea of starting low is to judge what sorts of side effects you get. Jumping in with a higher dose will not give you chance to assess.

On the other hand, you may not really get much in the way of sides and it not be a problem. Choice is yours really, either take the chance or don't. If you take your jab just before bed that may well limit how much you 'feel' any side effects.


I could'nt give you any feedback as far as splitting the dose goes. Don't know if it would make any difference either way. Personally i would just take one single daily dose just before bed.

Thanks for the reply.

how long does it take to get out of my system?

i.e if i was to take 1.5ml and felt like ****, how long would I feel like that for? also would i see results with using it for 5 days?

To be honest i'm not sure on how long it stays in your system, but i believe the side effects of nausea, etc... are more prominent around the time of the jab, and should subside even though the MT2 is still in your system.

Can't say about results within 5 days..... i would guess at using 1.5mg a day with sunbeds as well and then the sun whilst on holiday you would see some effect from it ......to what extent that would be i don't know. Would probably vary from person to person depending on skin type.

It's half life is short, but the effects last many hours. Nausea will be felt within minutes and can literally last all day. Flushing can also last many hours.

Wouldn't bother using for only 5 days tbh.
