On my inner thighs I have these lines. They're a few shades lighter than my skin color. My mom and I are pretty sure they're stretch marks. The only reason I noticed them was because I've been getting darker and they don't tan like the rest of my legs.
Anyway, I always thought stretch marks are red/pink when you first get them and they fade to a darker shade? I'm not sure if mine are new or not because they used to be about the same color as my skin, I'm guessing, because I never noticed them. I see them now that I'm tanner. I'm sure they've never been red or pink because I would have noticed red or pink marks on me.
Also, you cannot see them when I am standing up straight, only when I'm siting, or my knees are bent, stretching out me skin. So I'm not entirely sure what they are or how to get rid of them.
If it helps any, I'm 5'4 and 112lbs. But I when through a phase when my weight fluctuated quite a bit.

Buy coco butter lotion, and rub it on those spots once a day, and it will go away in about two weeks.
Hope I helped.
