Hearing loss is incredibly common, affecting approximately 48 million Americans. Although many people are hearing impaired, millions don’t treat their hearing loss. When left untreated, you may begin to experience fatigue, forgetfulness, social isolation, depression, and even cognitive decline.
At The Center for Audiology, our audiologists can help you find a treatment plan that will allow you to hear again and improve your communication. If you are ready to start reconnecting with your loved ones, contact us today.
Signs of Hearing Loss
Hearing loss often occurs gradually, over the course of a few years. For this reason, it can be difficult to notice you are having trouble hearing certain sounds. Often it is a relative or spouse that notices the signs of hearing loss first.
Common signs include:
- It seems like people mumble
- You can hear but you can’t understand words
- It’s difficult to hear when there is background noise (i.e., in a restaurant)
- You hear a ringing in your ears (tinnitus)
- Women and children’s voices are harder to understand
- You can’t hear the speaker on the other end of the phone clearly
- You feel tired after conversations
- You can’t hear as well when the speaker is facing away from you
If you have noticed any combination of these signs, it is time to have your hearing checked.

Comorbidities Associated with Hearing Loss
Your hearing plays a much larger role in your overall health than you may think. Hearing loss is connected to health conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. If you’ve noticed a decline in your hearing, schedule a hearing evaluation.
Untreated hearing loss can impact cognitive function, as we hear with the brain, not just our ears. Hearing aids provide essential sound signals to keep your brain active and healthy, while also boosting your confidence to engage with family, friends, and colleagues.
