I have them too. Right around the age of 20 or 21 I started getting them. Up until recently I thought the were just streach marks, but they are not. The are most definitly related to cushings syndrome, so if you have not been tested for that you should be really soon. I was tested for CS, but it came back negative. So I wonder why I have the the straie. About 6 years ago the very first doctor that mentioned PCOS to me mentioned that the abdominal straie was one of the many symptoms of PCOS. The only thing that Ive tried which helps fade them is coca butter, vitamin e and diet and exercise. Hope this helps. Also I have PCOS with all of the symptoms, never been pregnant, and Ive recently started on Glucophage so I'm hoping for the best. >>>>> >>>>>>Mine have come up the past year - you would think I have had 5 children - However >>>>>>my weight gain was RAPID so that is why I imagine.... >>>>>> >>>>>>anonymous wrote: >>>>>> >>>>>>> Just wanted to say you are not alone.
