I got them when my wife was pregnant because I also gained weight, but I heard that that isnt uncommon. How do you make stretch marks go away?

Yes. Because skin stretches and gets marks whether it's a man or a woman.

Yes.
Men get stretch marks from weight gain, either by overeating or by intense weight lifting. You often see athletes with stretchmarks on biceps and traps. The most common area for overeating stretch marks are the stomach, hips and thighs.
Unfortunately there's nothing that will remove them. You can ask your doctor for prescription Retin-A cream which will help a bit, but nothing removes "emergency" skin.

People have been asking that cor centuries, and stretch marks are not uncommon for a man, many have "sympathy marks." There are creams that help reduce the visibility of the stretch marks, they are also very expensive. Here are a few and where you can find them:
www.strivectin.com for StriVectin SD,
www.barmon.com for Barmon's,
www.skinstore.com for StiVectin SD,
www.ecresearchcorp.com for TriLASTIN-SR®
hope this helps!

Stretch marks don't go away..... they are scars..... the only thing you can go is use a lightener cream. Go to your local drug store and see if they have a generic kind...... you can also use cocoa butter cream to prevent stretch marks.... use the cocoa butter cream when your skin feels tight.... thats when it usually stretches.....
Good Luck Dear!

It's normal and guess what? They don't go away. Oh, they sell those creams in the drug store. Placebos! Stretch marks will eventually fade to a silvery color, but they are with you for the duration.

yeah its normal if you dont do anything, the best remedy is to go ouside and do stuff. maybe not eat so much. and jack off a lot. it burns 65 calories per hour. so 2-3 times a day is good...just keep up at that pace for a few months you'll be good.
