What medicine should I use for itchy stretch marks on my hips?

Asked by Female, 24 · 11 hours ago

For itchy stretch marks on your hips, the best initial approach is deep hydration. Apply a thick moisturiser containing cocoa butter, shea butter, or hyaluronic acid twice daily. To specifically target the itch, you can use an over-the-counter 1 percent hydrocortisone cream or calamine lotion for a few days. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult your doctor before using any medicated creams. For long-term improvement, a doctor might prescribe tretinoin cream (avoid this if pregnant). Keep showers lukewarm and avoid scratching to prevent further irritation. If the itching persists or a rash develops, seek a medical evaluation.
