If you don't receive the code after a few minutes, try typing HELP into the Twitter short code to ensure that you receive an SMS notification from Twitter. If you don't receive any reply, get help related to Twitter via SMS or use the password reset option via email.
Request additional information for password reset requests
If you frequently receive unsolicited password reset messages, you can request additional information to be entered to submit a password reset request:
Via Twitter.com, open your account settings.
In the Security section, check the box next to Request personal information to reset the password.
You will be asked to enter your account email address or cellphone number, to send a password reset email or SMS.
If your email address and mobile number are both linked to an account, you will be asked to enter both, before the email or SMS reset password can be sent
