stretch marks!!!!!!!

[nateman06]

God Damnit!!! As some of you may know, a have been on a Test/slin cycle for 9 weeks out of ten so far. One morning I woke up around week six, and I had some strech marks around my armpit/shoulder area. Then week seven or so, I found some in the groin region. Befor they were relatively small, but Im lookin now, and they are F-ing huge. Sh*t, I've never had stretch marks befor in my life, and I have been on three cycle befor this one. However, this one was the most hefty you could say. 500mg test/wk, and 25iu slin/day. Now Im finishing up with some tren (last four weeks of 12 weeks). Anyone get this??? They are ugly as hell. How do they go away, if they do at all.

I've had them since I started lifting at 15 years old. I have them all across my chest, ribcage (???), biceps (and my biceps aren't even big!) and now even my upper forearms. The ones on my chest change from deep purple to pink to blue depending on whether I am losing or gaining weight. I just see them as a positive sign of growth and let them be. Others use various creams and stuff to try and treat them but I have never cared enough to bother.

I think your out of proportion considering your picture .

I love them because its a serious sign of growth. I dont think creams help that much anyway so I dont sweat them.

No man, stretch marks are terrible. Use a compound with coca butter in it, which helps to prevent stretch marks, they do tend to fade over time, but you need preventative maintenance. I also remember seeing some new lotion offered by GNC, but you would have to check that out yourself.

i'm with pop on this one....however if you must, buy cocoa butter with vitamin E. Its increases elasticity of the skin (can be bought a gnc or wal-mart)

cocoa butter doesnt do shit, go to your local vitamin store and get vitamin e oil. it comes in a little plastic bottle. get as high iu concentration as they have. i put it on after i get out the shower b4 i go to bed. it helps, but if theyre bad, youre not gonna get rid of em completely. i have had them since age 16 and they get bigger all the time. it looks like a tiger mauled me right now. also there is a cream call maderma but its kinda expensive. hope this helps

Cosign. If you really want them to be less noticeable start tanning and get dark, it's about all you can do.

Cocoa Butter is a pure waste of time. Watched the g/f rub that all over like 2x a day while she was pregnant and she still got very bad stretch marks. Vitamin E is known to work, that and tanning are about it.

I heard there is a few places that sale cream to get rid of it,

 

[boostedHULK]

cocoa butter is not crap, it is great for your skin, it's NOT a miracle cream. cocoa butter, chea butter, vit. e oil are all great for you skin, and will definitely help with stretch marks, probably won't eliminate them if you have them very bad. There's is also an oil they sell at most natural health food stores, it's called mother's blend i believe, and is for pregnancy stretch marks and whatnot. Clear bottle, picture outline of a woman holding a child. Really good stuff, but don't look at the ingredients man. It's not too expensive compared to some of the prescription type stuff.

I hate to say it but you're probably fucked. I have them down my inner thighs so bad they look like tentacles, as well as thick ones that run onto my bis, down my lats, etc...I tried like a bastardto get rid of them but I honestly think the only thing that will make them disappear is time. In the meantime try with the vit e stuff to keep your skin more elastic and prevent further scarring, maybe even some tanning so they arent as pronounced. Eventually they'll begin to fade, mine have ever so slightly

 

[nateman06]

thanx for all the advice guys

As far as I know, creams might help prevent stretch marks. But once they are there, you cant get rid of them with creams alone. They will fade to a lighter color in time, but will always still be there. The only way to get rid of them is with Laser Treatment.
