Striae gravidarum and the constitution. Seynsche (Zentr. F. Gyn., 1926, no. 27)

Abstract

Having traced in 250 women the relationship between the tendency to form pregnancy scars and the woman's constitution, Seynsche found that there is a certain relationship between them, namely, in women with a clearly expressed female type, this tendency expressed much more sharply than in male-type women. The number of pregnancies in women does not have a significant effect on scar formation; a secondary role in this process is played by the age when a woman has her first birth.
