stretch marks
14/f
Okay I recently noticed that I've developed stretch marks on my thighs. I've read that they develope because of weight gain, but I exercise all the time, I'm a runner you see? I'm 5'5 and 115 pounds, so what I'm asking is...will they go away as I get older, and when exactly?

First off, don't worry, not all stretch are caused by weight gain. I suggest using a cream, preferably one with the ingredient "Lanolin" in it, every night before bed (daily, just before bed is easier), and after a while, they should fade, though depending how dark they are now, maybe not completely.

They don't always appear because of weight gain. Almost all girls have some stretch marks and they usually appear when they grow, particularly in puberty.
They won't dissapear as you get older but they may fade. Try moisturising to reduce their scarring, or using something like bio-oil.
At the end of the day though, everyone has them and dont worry about it :)

Around puberty a woman's body begins to change. Hips and thighs often become more voluptuous (it happens with breasts too). It's is not a matter of being overweight. They will probably fade to barely noticeable overtime. Don't worry about it.

stretch marks come from weight gain and weight loss as well. Stretch marks must be treated with cocoa butter and shea butter. They do leave eventually once you have treated them. You are 14 which means you are growing. This also can cause stretch marks too. Don't worry about it go ahead and treat it so it gets no worse but gets better.
