Ok so i'm 14 years old but I have the body of like a 17 year old everytime someone guesses my age they guess about 16/17 one guy even guessed 19 but I have stretch marks right by my hip and they look so horrible why do I have them is it because maybe my body developed too fast or something what can I use to get rid of them and please don't tell me cocoa butter cuz I use it every day I even got a cocoa butter lotion specifically fomulated for stretch mark and i've been using it for a couple of weeks and it's not really working. :(

Oh yeah and i've never had sex or nothing just wanted to add that cuz I heard that a girls hips get wider after she has sex but I know it can't be that cuz i'm still a virgin.

It probably is from developing so rapidly. As for getting rid of them you hear all that about cocoa butter working and not working, but all that it may do really is just make them lighter. I don't think they'll ever really go away completely.

Sex Causes Your Hips to Widen???

I'd have to say, i've never heard this one before...!!!
Is this really true? All i've ever heard is that childbirth causes your hips to widen...

Lol i've never heard that either. How could sex cause your hips to widen? Your hips may widen during puberty and after you have a baby but not because of sex.

I have tons of stretch marks from going through puberty too fast. They're all on my hips and up my sides but they're hardly noticeable anymore especially because my skin is so fair. They don't go away...Trust me, I tried ever cream invented...So just learn to love them. If you're with a guy who thinks they're weird or gross or anything, than he's not the guy for you. My boyfriend has pointed them out to me but not in a bad way...He's so competitive he had to point out to me all of his stretch marks from weight lifting, lol.
