Hi, I'm 15 and currently have stretch marks on my inner thighs and are now gradually moving around to my outer thigh, they are so embarresing and i don't know what to do, i think I'm skinny at size 12, 5"8/9 and i have 34b boobs.. i can see them starting to move down and around my legs and they are really starting to agravate me and are making me loose my confidence and self esteem and i feel so paranoid.. I've now had them for 2years and I've had enough to be honest i need help for them.. they are so depressing. Thanks xx

Honey, going to the doctor wont do any good, you dont need to! He wont give you anything for them, i asked my doctor about them and he told me what ive just told you!

And about the pubes, you can trim them if they bother you or hang out of your panties! Just use a little scisors and a mirror! :-D

Hey honey!

I had exactly the same problem, im 20 now adn my marks have almost totally faded, theyre still there if you really look. I was 5 ft 9 and a size 10/12 (still am!!)

The best thing to do is to use moisturiser, all the time, after every shower. This won't stope them but will help them fade quickly. Bio oil is good, but it smells funny and leaves your skin oily. I used the one that comes in a white bottle, that has loads of nutrients in it, for pregnant ladies to prevent sterch marks, its called Palmers. There are a lot of differnt types of Palmers, theyre all good! And its cheaper!

But dont worry, 1. everyone has strech marks somewhere, 2. they fade once you stop growing and 3. they are normal and youre skinny anyway!! :-D

O Connor agony aunthey sweetheart, I know how frustrating it can be to have them. but they are normal during puberty, and over time they do fade. there are a few things that you can do to prevent them and reduce them. invest in a loofah first of all and exfoliate a few times a week to get the circulation going. Retin-A or Tretinoin has been proven to reduce them also, but you have to go to your doctor for a prescription for the cream. lotions with oils such as cocoa butter, rose hip oil, castor oil, shea butter or jojoba oil are great also for stretchmarks and are also great for skin in general. another thing to do is get vitamin E capsules, break them open and rub on the skin daily for 2 weeks. hope all this helps!!! email me if you want good luck and dont worry! xxx
