stretch marks

[Lynn Cremona]

Stretch marks are Striae Gravidarum

The glucocorticoid hormones responsible for the development of stretch marks, affect the dermis by preventing the fibroblasts from forming collagen and elastin fibers, necessary to keep rapidly growing skin taut. This creates a lack of supportive material, as the skin is stretched and leads to dermal and epidermal tearing.
In humans, the most important glucocorticoids are cortisol (hydrocortisone) and cortisone.
in Synthesis:
Skin
Striae. = Cortisonum
reference from James Stephenson Hahnemannian Provings MM and Repertory
Keynotes are similar to Cortictropinum.

re Calc fluor:

Calc fluor's has an affinity with, "the elastic fibers: esp. of veins"; Phatak's Materia Medica.
Clarke’s Dictionary of MM; Elastic fibers in the cells of the epidermis
Vermeulen’s Concordant; Scar Tissue and adhesions after surgery
Probably wouldn’t hurt to massage the affected area(s) with vitamin E oil
