Could my stretch marks be from horseriding?!


Question: Could my stretch marks be from horseriding?
Two summers ago I noticed that I was developing stretch marks on my inner right thigh.. and just recently I've noticed it developing on my left! I'm only 17 and I haven't lost or gained a considerable amount of weight so I don't think it's from that. I never really thought about it but now I'm wondering if horse riding could be the cause? I only go weekly so I'm not really sure. I really don't want to end up with any more stretch marks than I already have cause they really do effect my confidence, but at the same time I really love riding horses. Do you think this is why I'm getting them?

hiya im 17 too and seriously dont get to stressed out about it you body is growing so ur skin is trying to strtch enuff for ur growth
i myself have many stretch marks on my bum, thighs, hips, and evan on the side of my breast

i would adwise you to moisturise to help the skin stratch a lil easier XD
also first they are funny red or purpley colour but after a while the turn silvery and pale so you hardly notice them atall :) hope helped

also many girls are age, younger and older have stretch marks women get them alot :)

<3

also i 4got to mention you get them from growing taller or loosing n putting on weight XD



Stretch marks are caused by your body growing faster than your skin can adjust. I am pretty sure you probably grew taller from two summers ago, weight does not have to be the cause. Riding a horse (unless you implanted the horse under your skin, thus stretching it) would not give you stretch marks.



Nope. u get stretch marks when you suddenly gain or lose weight. horseriding has nothing to do with stretch marks whatsoever.



hiya im 17 too i dont know much about horse riding but i doubt your stretch marks are from this you could possibley be growing i have one on my leg although it isnt big, you can get them if you exercise alot too i just think its one of those things im afraid but dont worry im sure your still as gorgeous, dont give up horse riding it makes you happy and im very doubtful this is what has caused your stretch marks, in the meantime try moisturise your legs when your out of the bath and before bed to help keep your skin moisturised and fresh this should help in the future to prevent stretch marks as it could help make your skin more elasticated :-) hope ive helped a little :-) x
