Yep. It's almost like a nervous twitch. Irritating.

Does yours come and go?

Yes. Sometimes a muscle will twitch just once or there will be a series of twitches. But it does just come & go. Just as I started to type this my thigh muscle twitches just once. I'm laying on the couch. So, I am relaxed & it had no reason to twitch. Weird stuff, our hormones.

Thanks Tracy. Sometimes my thigh will jerk while I'm driving. Scary!

I was having issues w this especially when trying to get to sleep. I discovered by accident that magnesium supplements helped improve this problem greatly. Try taking this w your calcium because it improves calcium absorption and see if things improve. Let me know how it goes.

Thank you tired3. I have recently started the mag. Some days the twitching is worse than others. I am kind of confused because my magnesium blood levels were normal. Even on the upper end of normal. The Epsom salt baths do seem to calm it down a bit.

Interesting. Maybe u do not have a magnesium defiency but I guess it won't hurt trying the supplements to see if things improve. Let me know how it goes. I never had my magnesium levels checked to confirm a deficiency. If the supplements help you. It may mean one of two things. Your normal levels is higher than most or your lab test results were not accurate. In any case I would run everything you are doing by your health care provider.

My left thigh started twitching about 5 months ago. At first I thought I had sciatica. About two weeks ago I started experiencing twitching and tingling in other places. It's only now I'm starting to think it has something to do with menopause. My question is 'how long will it last?'

I don't know how long it will last. Mine has definitely calmed down a lot. It comes and goes

How long have you had your twitching, prayerwarrior?

About 6-7 weeks

I've come to the conclusion that the twitching in my left thigh, which is constant, is to do with a pinched nerve. I've gone back to my massage therapist to see if he can fix it. My other twitches and tingling come and go; so far they are not bothering me too much. I think I freaked out my son a bit though when I showed him the twitch in my hand.

Just a thought, but I finally realized that I think mine was related to Ativan withdrawals. You don't happen to take anything like that to help you sleep do you?
