any way to avoid stretch marks?

[Almost There]

Im developing some on my current cycle, never had them before this one. Is there any way to prevent them from getting bigger?

Take good care of your skin. Lotion, oil, and even HGH will help with this.

i read somewhere that cocoa butter helps

my wife used banana boat after the sun when she was pg and never got any so id say that works also

google it.. I used maderma, and it was unbelievable... faded almost all my marks... didn't have many, but preventative med treatment is the best way for you right now... it sounds like you caught them before they get worse... keep skin moisterized

[magicstick2003]

am i the only one who doesn;t really mind having them? it's not too extreme like in my buddies case where he has them all over his arms and chest... but i got them on my bi and between my shoulder and my chest (these r hidden unless i pick up my arm) starting to get some on the back of my shoulder too....

Ive had them for a long time, not too many but quite deep under the arm, and inner groin (Really nasty there, Like paper thing skin!) But you cant see them all unless my arms are up or legs wide open! Ive heard a lot of good reviews on Bio-oil, my wife is pregnant and she will be using that as soon as I buy some. Going to look into this mederma too.

Nothing you put on your skin externally can stop stretch marks. You would be wasting your money. You need to add more zinc to your diet. I read a study that showed that the lack of zinc produced stretch marks, and that supplementing zinc would stop them from spreading. Make sure not to use above the recommmended dose, because it can be toxic.

[dazbo]

the above is very true, a book ive read called the optimum nutrition bible says the same but very in depth. ZMA supps will voer it as well as increasing homone levels and making you sleep better. But, topical ones DO help

i hate the damn things...this cocoa butter used to work but now theres just getting really bad

[icedudez]

where can u get mederma in the UK otc?

[dazbo]

its on ebay or use google and search for merderma buy UK - that found some places for me

[icedudez]

and say if the stretch marks r red will they fade to a kind of white? mine r v bad!, so bad i cant take my shirt off anymore.

[Smedman101]

You can not avoid them...Ive heard good things about merderma. Helps fade the marks away.

[shortie]

Never tried the Moderma(sp), but I can tell you my 5'2" 98 LB wife has not one stretch mark after two pregnancies, both of 'em she gained at least 45 lbs in nine months. She used coccoa butter cream from the body shop, works wonders IMO.

[icedudez]

lol shortie's thats nice for your wife but the damage is done for most of us, i tried coccoa butter, did nothin

Do you use a tanning bed, they can bring them out sometimes

[taylor26]

has anybody tried vitamin e a buddy a mine used it and it worked pretty good for him.

[MuckDog]

i think in shortie's and my wifes cases the lotion was used more as a preventative rather then a cure. so this Moderma stuff sounds like a great solution that ill have to look into as i have some as well and they are freakin U G L Y

[TCEL300]

vit e works for me

[shortie]

You know what else works, shit sandwiches, not only are they excellent as far as anabolic diet goes, but they are great for the skin. LMAO I can't let this go-
