How can I prevent having stretch marks during pregnancy? Is there a certain body cream or oil to use?
Mar 28, 2014

Dr. Hanaa Itani Obstetrics & Gynecology
Unfortunately, you cannot prevent stretch marks totally if your skin is of the type that forms stretch marks. However, you can decrease them by applying moisturizing creams starting at the end of the third month. There is no specific cream to use but you can search for those that contain cocoa butter.

If your skin is of the type that develops stretch marks, no prevention is efficient.
