AGE RELATED HEARING LOSS

 Hearing loss is a most prevalent problem caused by loud noise, aging, disease, and hereditary. People with hearing problem may find it hard to have conversations with their friends and family. They may also face trouble understanding a doctor’s suggestion, responding to warnings, and hearing doorbells and alarms.


Your aging can sometimes degrade your hearing. Most people start to lose their hearing around the age of 60-65, although this can be different for every individual. Hearing problems are natural part if you’re getting older. As you begin to become old, the cells in your inner ear start to perish, which sometimes aren’t replaced by new hair cells. So when more and more of your hair cells get perished, then your hearing will continue to get depreciated & worse. Age-related hearing loss can be normally caused by:

Exposure to loud noise (Industrial machinery, high decibel work place, loud music)

Smoking

Medical conditions like Nerve damage in inner ear

Medications

Hereditary problems

Extremely high rates of exposure to high level of decibels can result in you facing the hearing problems as early as in your teen age.   

WHAT IS THE TIME THAT YOU LOSE YOUR HEARING SENSE?

It’s not really certain to know when you will start to face hearing problems and at what degree it generally depends on a lot of lifestyle factors along with hereditary problems and place of your work.

Therefore, regular tests with your audiologist are crucial for maintaining your hearing health sound & safe. Most hearing loss is slow and gradual and it is almost impossible to detect when it first starts.

If hearing loss is persistent problem in your generations of family, then this tend to mean you are more likely to develop age-related & deteriorating hearing loss. While many things may influence age-related hearing loss, once you lose your hearing sense, then it’s permanent
