First off, MANY younger people, male and female get stretch marks from rapid growth/rapid weight gain. You are NOT alone, even though I know it stinks.

The best thing to do is to use shea butter to help stop more from coming on, and minimizing the appearance of the ones you already have.

Shea butter is a natural moisturizer. Some brands will be very expensive and others not. The high price is not an indication of a better product, so get the cheaper one, as long as it's pure shea butter. You may need to go to a health food store to get it.

It really helps. My daughter in law was PG at 16, and was tiny, so she really got stretched out. Her twin was PG at the same time. My daughter in law used shea butter and her twin used some kind of cream for stretch marks. The twin actually had her baby prematurely, so she wasn't nearly as big, but the one who used the shea butter had MUCH less stretch marks.

Another thought....You are MORE than what you look like. You're more than your weight, more than your appearance, more than your stretch marks. Try not to worry. I'm sure you're a great person and those marks are just a tiny part of YOU!

Moisturize. It happens when you grow, your skin NATURALLY stretches (I highly doubt its a weight issue as MOST women get stretch marks when they grow)

*try having verticle stretch marks on your hips from getting taller...my sister has them*

Udder cream is a good cream to be used to help with the skin or any good body butter or body cream as its a little bit thicker than lotion (not as greasy feeling)

I use cocoa butter for my stretch marks. It works pretty good and with time it does help them fade away.
