ObjectiveTo determine the prevalence of restless legs syndrome (RLS) in a group of Mexican women.Material And MethodsIn 2011 a sample 69,830 Mexican women participating in a longitudinal study answered a questionnaire addressing the minimal diagnostic criteria for RLS.ResultsRLS prevalence was 15.6% and mean age 44.4 years (+/- 7.4). The prevalence among women < 30 years was 7.7% and among those ≥ 60 years 17.9%. Despite 54.5% of cases reporting high frequency of symptoms only 18.1% received treatment.ConclusionsRLS may affect a large, previously unrecognized proportion of the Mexican population.
