Relentless and excessive stretching of skin due either to weight gain during the pregnancy or hormonal changes, around puberty, play their crucial roles in causing stretch marks over different parts of body, such as lower abdomen(near the belly-button), breasts, upper arms, underarms, inner and outer thighs, hips and buttocks. Though the stretch marks generally fade away with the passage of time, they do not disappear, forcing the victims to get themselves rid of their unwanted stretch marks from their body howsoever. It is not only the pregnancy or puberty which causes stretch marks, but obesity as well that causes stretch marks among the men and women in a similar way. Lethargy also contributes to a great extent in developing the stretch marks arbitrarily, which is needed to be prevented through exercises.
