Stretch marks on back & thighs?

I don't understand, I am a guy, I work out 5 days a week to maintain a 6 pack. I weigh 165, my height is 6"1.

I found a crap load of stretch marks on my back, and thighs....... I now feel embarrased to go swimming w/ girls. Why could this be? I am not overweight at all.

Anyway, any medicine that could make it go away?

& just to say, im still in high school, I wonder what the girls in college will say :(

Answer
Hi,

Stretch marks or striae (singular stria), as they are called in dermatology, are a form of scarring on the skin with an off-color hue. They are caused by tearing of the dermis, which over time may diminish, but will not disappear completely.

Stretch marks are often the result of the rapid stretching of the skin associated with rapid growth or rapid weight changes. Stretch marks may also be influenced by hormonal changes associated with puberty, pregnancy, muscle building, hormone replacement therapy, etc.[1] Medical terminology for these kinds of markings includes striae atrophicae, vergetures, stria distensae, striae cutis distensae, striae gravidarum (in cases where it is caused by pregnancy), lineae atrophicae, linea albicante, or simply striae.


Here are stretch marks creams and their reviews of how well they worked:
