stretch marks

I am seeing what I think is the start of stretch marks on my breasts. What is the best kind of cream or lotion to use to avoid these while we are growing? I seem to remember my sister putting cocoa butter lotion on her belly to avoid stretch marks when she was pregnant.

They say stuff with collagen elastin is supposed to be good. Maybe Vitamin K. There are Cocoa Butter products with collagen in it, so that should be good.

i was told when i got stretch marks that excess estrogen actually thins the skin, thus birth control ans other estrogenic products help stretch marks develop.

Use a cream with Vit E in it. Also take internally, Vit E and Vit. A and lots of Vit C.

i got bad stretch marks from herbs and massaging with extracts. theyre hormonal. trilastin seems to help but is expensive.

My experience with stretch marks and childbirth was that it didn't matter so much what I massaged with but just regular massaging really helped a whole lot. I think because it stimulates the blood circulation that it must help to heal them. I did get good results using a CO Q10 lotion seemed to help better than plain cocoa butter or other stretchmark creams.
