message: support - i'd support the proposed merge between Stretch marks and striae, since they seem to be the same thing. I'm no expert though, maybe there is a subtle distinction? Spute 21:08, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The external links seemed to indicate they are the same. No one has raised an objection in ten days, so I merged them. Thanks.--Chaser T 09:40, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge with Striae 

message: Just wanted to mention I have replaced a deleted reference to trofolastin in the article under prevention and cure. I feel that Trofolastin should be included as it is the only published controlled study I could find which empirically tested the efficacy of topical creams on the prevention of stretchmarks in what is a multi $m industry.
The editor who removed the reference made a comment that mentioning Trofolastin is a 'major product push' and that trofolastin is available all over the internet.  I do not feel this is accurate. The product is a prescription item and is not available outside of Spain.  However, importantly, its ingredients are. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Griffibo (talk • contribs) 14:20, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

I wanted to recommend an external link to a site that provides clinical medical images of conditions (including striae).  Please take a look and if the group feels there's value, please add the reference.  This site is linked to from MedlinePlus as well as other information resources looking to provide high quality medical images to help explain a topic.

message: The intro line says stretch marks are a form of scarring on the skin with a silvery white hue.  Is this actually correct?  Wouldn't the mark only be a silvery white hue if the person was white or light skinned?  I doubt a darker skinned person would have slivery white stretch marks?  Can someone provide a source for this? Itsmeiam (talk) 12:37, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Silvery white?

message: I've tried to add this picture Image:Schwangerschaftsstreifen.JPG (see also here: ) as an example of stretch marks but for some unknown reason it does not "take". Doing a "show preview" shows no picture and even some text is disappearing. What's wrong withthis picture, or rather what's wrong with the English wiki? On other wiki's it does show without problems. --VanBurenen (talk) 15:05, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It appears that this image is "blacklisted": . What's going on? I've not heard of this before. Since when does en:wiki blacklist images that are on commons, and where is this voted on or listed with motivation? --VanBurenen (talk) 09:00, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

message: We already have a picture. If we MUST include another one, there are other areas that are stretch mark prone that could be shown. Why a breast? Pstanton 03:14, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: As I mentioned 3 days ago, I question the usefulness of that picture as we already have a picture with much more visible stretch marks, and if a second is really necessary, I personally feel that something that shows the stretch marks better. I feel like the as the article itself doesn't explicitly have breasts as a topic, it would be better to use something like a picture of the shoulders or arms with stretch marks.

thread_title:  is the breast really neccessary? 

message: Dont despair, firstly let me pass on my pregnancy tips... apply a vitamin E cream over your stomach and lower back throughout your pregnancy. I foolishly only applied it to my abdomen and now have a ridged' striped back !! No marks on my tummy though ! Also use on your boobs ( I forgot about them too and, yes, you've guessed it,...Stripey )
I have a 13 year old daughter who has developed stretch marks and has been teased about them ( note to self to stop this overwhelming development of loathing all other teenagers syndrome!) I have to help her, thought I would try this bio - oil ?? Has anyone got any ideas ?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jymum (talk • contribs) 22:36, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
