How to reduce stretch marks after pregnancy naturally?
Got quite a few stretch marks on my pet and thighs after delivery 2 months back. Dont really want to use chemical stuff. Any natural things that actually worked for u all? Pls share ur experience.
I am not a doctor, but personally, I just massaged my belly with warm bio-oil or homemade coconut oil with vitamin E twice a day. It didn't make them disappear completely, but it definitely made them much lighter.
I am so worried mine will never go away, I keep trying different things every day. Some say aloe vera gel helps, others say almond oil. I hope we can find something that works, let's keep massaging gently.
I literally cried when I saw my tummy full of dark stretch marks post-delivery! But honestly, they fade naturally over time from red to silvery lines. Just keep applying virgin coconut oil regularly, they will lighten up and it's totally normal.
Natural oils like shea butter or rosehip oil can help keep the skin hydrated and improve elasticity. However, stretch marks are mostly genetic and deep in the skin layers. If you want targeted treatments, it is best to consult a dermatologist post-pregnancy.
Don't buy those expensive 'miracle' creams advertised online, they are mostly waste of money. Simple cold-pressed coconut oil or mustard oil from your kitchen is cheap and works just as well to keep the skin moisturized.
