The whole tender to the touch scalp freaks me out a bit.
I am also scared of long term side effects. I am trying to find some studies on the product. How long it was tested before being put on the market, testing in humans etc.
Will post back if I find anything.

. regimen was to co-wash daily and apply, didn't mix with anything.

Am I the only one that found the smell of MT to be nauseatingly sweet? I wanted to give it a go early on but couldn't take that strong sweet smell.I feel a little queasy thinking about it.

I'm praying for you and your family.

If you have any bottles you care to part with, I will take it off of your hands. I have no issues with fish protein, sweet smells, sore scalps, baldness, patches, nothing. My new growth is so thick I'm stretching 6 mos just so I can get a pleasant surprise in the spring. I had to buy a shower detangler comb because the comb I had wasn't cutting it anymore.
Just remember me if you don't want your bottle cause it's my staple. MegaTek is my friend.
ETA: NJoy, I sent up a prayer for you.

Please search for many of the older threads. One had an interview with the company which discusses the origin of the product. Although it is currently marketed towards animals, it was originally intended for human use, esp those with balding or other hair related issues.
The product, altho CURRENTLY marketed towards animals is entirely safe for humans. For those who feel uncomfortable with this designation, they also make OVATION which is a different packaging for pretty much the same product at higher $$$.

Mine is a cautionary tale versus a horror story about Megatek. When I was using Megatek on my scalp 3 to 4 times a week, I kept reading about keeping up the moisture level in my hair. Well, I ended up over moisturizing and it caused breakage! I really wasn't applying Megatek to the length of my hair, so there was no need for all of that extra moisturizing I did. Besides, I have fine hair, so I do need protein on the length of my hair. I still use Megatek, but as a weekly protein treatment.

Sorry to hear this. Too much moisture broke off my hair too. Its funny because you never hear about people being cautious with moisture, only protein. But too much cowashing/DCING/prepooing really did me in
Thanks for sharing.
I used it when I was relaxed and it made my scalp hurt.
I was WONDERING why my scalp felt sore/tender.

So true that's why I didn't give it any thought. The same for me with co-washing and I loved co-washing, but it was too much moisture. I can get away with doing it every now & then.
