7 Warning Signs That You Will Need A Hearing Aid

You Can’t Hear In Noisy Environments

Let’s say you go out with friends and have dinner at a popular restaurant. It’s not especially loud there, it’s just noisy, like any restaurant would be on a weekend night. The background noise, though, seems to be interfering with your hearing and you can’t even hear the people who are right at your table.

People suffering from hearing loss struggle with blocking out background noise. A hearing aid can reduce background noise so it’s easier to focus on what the people you’re with are saying. The microphones in your hearing aids pick up the sounds closest to you while minimizing the noise in the background.

You Can’t Hear Women And Children

Hearing loss within a certain frequency is common, especially as you age. People are more likely to lose hearing for higher frequencies than for lower frequencies. Women and children tend to have higher pitched voices in those frequencies that you’re losing your hearing for. It may be difficult to notice the hearing loss if you’re still hearing lower frequencies normally.

If you find that you can’t always hear or understand what your wife, girlfriend, or daughter are saying, a hearing evolution can determine which frequencies you’re struggling to hear. Certain hearing aids can be tuned to boost the sound of specific frequencies, which can restore your hearing back to practically normal.
