Abdomenal Twitches

I am 46 and have been in menopause for 7
months. Recently I started have twitches
inside the area of my lower abdomen near
my pubic hair. It happens very
sporadically and is not painful. It feels
like when you have a muscle twitch in your
arm. I may get it once a week and it will
continue for an hour or so. Did anyone
else ever get this or hear about it? I
scheduled an exam for april 1.

Whew! Glad to hear someone else has it.
When it first started, it felt like a
fluttering in the beginning of a pregnancy
so I rushed out to get a pregnancy test
which was negative. I wondered if it is
because the uterus is not functioning any
longer and is going into these muscle
flutters??? I'll let you know what the
doctor says.

Im only 28 and I don't think I could be
starting menopause, but I am having these
flutters. I am not pregnant and i'm
wondering if this is something that I
should have checked out or is it even big
enough to worry about?

Well, it is now nov. 05 and I had
forgotten I posted this question.
Fortunately, the twitches stopped. I
never did find out what they were.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I'm 47. I am having these flutters as
well. Mine one starts at the chest and
then it sprays to the abdomen, hands and
legs. I describe it as "blowing bubbles
like" and is noisy. No one understand
what i'm talking about.
What kind of doctor that you're going to
see? I rang up the women's hospital said
I need to see a menopause specialist.
They asked few questions then booked me in
for a gynecology. Is it the right one?
Pika.

Hi everyone, i'm new on this site. I'm 58
and had a partial hysterectomy 20 years
ago. I also have the same feeling of
movement in my stomach for the last 3
months. Has anyone found out what may be
causing this? Any input would be
appreciated. Thanks.

Ab Twitches

Interesting. These twitches don't seem to
be age discriminate. And with 2 ladies
each having a hysterectomy 20 years prior,
that should knock out the menopausal
theory. I am 36 and have been feeling the
fluttering. Before running out to get a
pregnancy test and spending money
unnecessarily, I thought i'd look online
first. However, many have the fluttering,
but no one has the answer (yet).
Pregnancy is unlikely for me due to
vasectomy, and few opportunities. So i'm
at a loss. This is the only site i've
found with anything close to these ab
twitches. Anyone else have any luck
finding info? :?

I am so glad hear that I am not the only
one with these flutters. I have them
right now and I am trying to find out why
this is happening.
They are sorta like the flutters you have
during early pregnancy, but I am not
pregnant.
I am 30 and I have pretty regular periods.
I am late now about 2 weeks but I know
for a fact that I am not pregnant. My
periods are late whenever I have drama and
this time it was a yeast infection.
This happened last month but I cannot
remember what was going on at that time.
I am very curious. I think I am going to
email my doctor to ask about it, but it
feels good to know that I am not the only
one.

I am new to this forum. But I totally
relate to "prettyandhealthy". I am also
30 and definetly not pregnant. I had a
tubal ligation. But last week I started
experiencing flutters that feel like early
pregnancy. I am really freaked out
because I don't know what's causing it.
Has anyone found out what is causing these
abdominal flutters? I don't have the
extra money to go find out, and when I
called my ob\gyn, she had no idea and kind
of acted like I was crazy.

I had a yeast infection as well before the
abdominal twitches. I though was a
pregnancy as well. Period was irregular
but end up was not a pregnancy. Now my
tummy is blowing up like a six month
pregnant! Menopause test came back fall
in the category of "post menopause". The
test was done during my 3rd day of period.
I only suspected would be perimenopause
but was post menopause!

Hi, i'm 42 years old and had a tubal
ligation almost 10 years ago. For the
past month or so I have been experiencing
flutters in my stomach which have been
coming more often and now everyday. I
actually took a pregnancy test which
showed negative. The feelings in my
stomach feel exactly like the fluttering
of pregnancy (i've have 3 children).
I don't know what else it could be. It's
not in the same spot everytime. It
bounces like a baby and i've even felt the
flutters with my hand while experiencing
it. My periods are down to every 25 days
and heavier then ever. I'm going to make
an appointment with the gyno. I know
that I have fibroids in my uterus and
cysts on my ovaries. Has anyone else
found out what this may be?
:roll:

Fluttering In Abdomen

Hi all
i too have experienced a fluttering in
abdomen, on lower left quadrant, often
thought it was wind, but more recently it
has become quite 'violent'.
It can be visually seen as well as felt.
I am 45, had a total hysterectomy 13yrs
ago and have been on 100grms estraderm
ever since.
Can anyone give insight into this weird
sensation.
Most people think it is all in the mind,
but something visible and felt is most
definitely not.

I am 43 years old and I don't think I am
close to menopause yet but I have been
experiencing abdomen flutters for about a
week now. I knew I was not pregnant
because my partner and I are using methods
to deter that. My flutters are on the
left side at the top of my abdomen and you
can actually see the skin move as if a
baby were in there. If any body know what
this is please let me know. This kind of
scary. This is the only site that talks
anywhere close to what is going on.

I am 44 and had a hysterectomy 21 years
ago. I had a violent history of female
issues with several surgeries. Started
feeling these "flutters" about 3 weeks
ago. Feels like baby movement. NOT!
Anybody ever get any official answers to
cause. Really is annoying!
