Hello . i have some tiny new moles on my body . is that normal? i am afraid of them . (i am 17 years old and can i think that its because i am in a transitional age ? )

Some perspective: A newborn has relatively pristine skin with occasional birthmarks. That skin gradually expands over time & most adults will have 10-40 by middle age. They sometimes fade or new ones appear. I would not lose sleep over having moles but you can always have specific ones looked at when you go in for any visit.
