A member asked:

Im a 24 y/o female & i have stretch marks on my right hip that hurt as if they were bruises and itch like crazy. could it be a sign of pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stretch marks: Stretch marks are a common occurrence in young people and are not a sign of pregnancy per se. If you become pregnant and gain a lot of weight, you may develop stretch marks. Think of stretch marks as scars. It is for that reason that they are sometimes painful.
