Mt2 and stomach fat loss

shaneNJ · Jun 21, 2025

So- I’ve used MT 2 just about every summer in the Northeast and have been doing the same this year. I e always noticed my stomach gets flatter and and more visable and it’s not just the tanning effect. The effects are quite noticeable to the point I would consider MT2 to be effective for belly fat. Has anyone else noticed this?

ive heard some talk about melanotan2 increasing insulin sensitivity and killing fat cells/adipose aptosis, not sure if its that. Could there be lifestyle changes you make while you are taking melanotan2 thats causing less stress or an increase in acitivity levels? improved vitamin D levels from tanning more too might help your body but i dont see how that would help fat storage patterns or fat loss.

Yeah my first thought was a little summer cut... maybe unwitting, just an instinct we all have this time of year xD

Many animal studies show weight loss; seems to suppress appetite and maybe a little boost in energy expenditure (eg, 1 & 2)

Absolutely no changes to diet or training. I usually have some distention even when my abs are visible which some may refer to as Roid Gut. It usually flattens out when I come off gear all together or cut down to trt doses of test only. I remember this happening last year with MT2 but attributed it to dieting or something else but I didn’t think about it too much. This time it’s quite noticeable and my stomach is completely flat with abs. I also remember reading that stomach fat loss could be one of the benefits of MT2 so that has been in the back of my mind. There is no doubt it is the MT2. I’ve struggled with this for years and my stomach has only gotten completely flat a few times and it’s either when I go off or get sick. I suggest anyone else going through the same dissension issues to give it a try as I’d love to hear what you experience as well. I will keep you guys updated as to whether or not this is just a temporary effect or it lasts if I use small doses over a few months.

It’s been at .25mcg every night for the past week. I was on vacation a week prior to that for 10 days and was doing the same for about a week leading up as I was planning on tanning on the beach. I didn’t bring the MT2 with me and only tanned the last 2 days due to rain. I definitely got some good color but my tan has gotten darker from just the injections the past week abd no direct sun. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind it has an effect on flattening my stomach. I’m just at the point where I no longer get nauseous after injection. My stomach is usually distended a bit and it’s bothered me for years. It’s like night and day. I think this happened last year when I ran mt2 but I was attributing it to my diet or something else. I’ve gone nuts logging my diet to figure out what may hurt and help. I honestly think the gear causes the stomach to bloat. I’ve dropped test from 600 down to 300 per week along with cutting out low teen I was running prior to vacation as well. This may have contributed but the effects are so dramatic it’s crazy. I will continue to update. I also just picked up some tesamorelin to target the visceral fat which has now nowhere where it was just a week ago.
If you are struggling with your midsection and distention I suggest to cut out all gear and start mt2 at .25mcg per day. Then assess the results and start test back up at 300/week.

i believe the stomach bloat is all about the protein we eat , that causes the most bloat, i just saw a AB video about this and less protein equates to less bloat especially in the midsection, i guess it has alot to do with that new "sugar diet" , but loweing protein seems counterintuitive to what we are used to hearing and doing, Unless you have hgh indused distention from poor genetics, its interesting your results though,
