I have these marks on my thigh and they are like white lines. They are in the same spot on both legs. These a bunch and also the kinda feel like indents in the skin. I have had them forever. Like a couple years now. But I don't know what they are.

What are stretch marks? I've heard from some people saying that they're marks you get on your stomach after you're pregnant or after the baby came out…is that true?

But Shannon, not saying that in any way that you got pregnant at all, but I'm not sure anyway.

You just get them as you grow because your skin stretches and it leaves narks.

Stretch marks are marks you get when the skin stretches. I have some on my lower stomach due to when I was pregnant :( ugh. I tan and work out that helps hide them.

Yea when you either lost a lot of weight fast or you keep going up and down constantly that's why I have them. Almond oil helps to fade them.

You can get stretch marks during puberty if you had a growth spurt. Basically a weight gain in a short amount of time, pregnancy & weightlifting are also common ways to get them.

Since you said you've had them for a couple of years, it was probably just from the changes your body went through during puberty. You don't have to be overweight to get them; I have stretch marks on my lower back from a growth spurt years ago.

If they are bothering you, there are a range of products out on the market that can fade or reduce the appearance of stretchmarks.
