What are Stretch Marks?
Stretch marks, medically known as striae, are visible lines or streaks on the skin that occur due to rapid stretching of the skin. They are commonly seen on the abdomen, thighs, hips, breasts, and arms, often appearing after pregnancy, weight gain, or growth spurts.
Causes of Stretch Marks
- Pregnancy – Rapid expansion of the abdominal skin leads to striae.
- Rapid Weight Gain or Loss – Sudden changes stretch the skin beyond its elasticity.
- Puberty – Growth spurts can cause stretch marks in adolescents.
- Genetic Predisposition – Some individuals are more prone due to skin type.
- Corticosteroid Use – Prolonged use can weaken skin elasticity.
- Bodybuilding – Rapid muscle growth can stretch the skin.
- Hormonal Changes – Imbalances affecting collagen and elastin can cause striae.
- Medical Conditions – Conditions like Cushing’s syndrome may lead to stretch marks.
