I'm 15, 5'5 and 130 lb.s, I'm not "over-weight", so why have I developed stretch marks on my high thighs?
I am in sports-- I've been in Basketball, Track & Field, Cheerleading, Lacrosse, Tumbling, and Volleyball-- Both of my jobs require standing for about 5-7 hours at a time-- Are these all factors??
Is it too late to get rid of them??
Why so young??

You get them from growing too fast, try getting special stretch-mark lotion and making sure to use it regularly to avoid getting worse stretch marks

If they are on your thighs, you probably got them from a rapid change in your body like puberty giving you hips. Stretch marks never go away but you can reduce the look of them with lotions specialy made to do so like Maderma.

You can get stretch marks from growth spurts as well as weight gain. They will fade over time, but cutting them out with surgery is the only way to "get rid" of stretch marks.

most of people have strech marks somewhere on their bodies. they usually appear when you grow fast and when your breasts grow fast - skin doesnt have time to adjust and it stretches. you can use some cocoa butter because you are 15 and you will still grow.
