dark spots at injection site - possibly atrophy too, and nausea every time
I have NEVER been tanned in my life.* Freckles only, and skin white enough for strangers to make comments.* I have loved my tans with Melanotann II.* I don't use constantly, and yet, I have never gone back to my former white color * I do have some small spots that are white - like reverse freckles, but, only on my legs and certainly, the nicer overall color of my skin makes them worth it.* I am also older (49 year old female) and it could be age related.*
Here are my problems that I would like to resolve in order to not be so apprehensive every time I start another session.
1)* ]2)* :-[ nausea.* I get nauseated and it lasts in to the following day.* I have vomited, and have called in sick to work.* Any suggestions?* This one is the MAIN reason that I have not injected since March.* I'm not giving up, though, because I love my new coloring.

Hi Karensa
The white marks you're likely experiencing are scar tissues, from small nicks and cuts. There are a few posts on here about scar tissue and melanotan, may be worth looking into them.
As to the bruising, it may be based on injection technique as they can last for a while - 5 months is a long time, though. The easiest way is to chose a spot about 2"/5mm to the side of your navel, preferably not below. Pinch and inject straight and relatively quickly.* You could look into shorter or higher gauge needles. If you have low body fat it is more tricky and you have to inject at angles, this normally isn't an issue, though.
Finally, the nausea can be very problematic for many people, you can try lowering your dose and injecting just before bed.
What dose have you been using? Try starting at 100 or 250mcg and work your way up to a happy medium.
Alternatively, MT1 doesn't generally give bad sides.

Now that I recall, when I didn't have nausea and injection site discoloration, I had started with MTI.* Maybe I should order that this next go around.* Thank you
