Why Did I Lose My Hearing and What Can I Do?

You want to know why your hearing has become so much worse over the last few years and what your options are. This article will explain the science of hearing loss and what you can do about it.

You've already noticed that your poor hearing is making your life much more difficult.

And these are some of the most common ways it's impacting your life:

– You're more stressed

– You stay home more than you used to

– You get frustrated or angry more easily

– You feel lonely and isolated

– You watch all TV and online videos with captions

We know this because hearing loss is one of the most common medical conditions that exists. Most people will lose some hearing as they age.

In the last 20-30 years, we have found treatments for so many medical conditions.

In the last 20-30 years, we have found treatments for so many medical conditions.

Cancer survival rates are way up.

We can get almost perfect eyesight with a simple laser surgery.

There are scientists in the University of Washington who are working on regrowing enamel to restore our teeth.

It's truly amazing what we are able to do now.

But not with hearing loss. It seems like when you lose your hearing, they just tell you "Sorry, it's just part of getting old".

Are we really going to have a world in 10-20 years where seniors are walking around at 70 and 80 with perfect vision and perfect teeth but they still can't hear?

First, you need to understand how your ears work.

Three-stage diagram of how sound travels through the ear to the brain

The reason hearing loss is so difficult to cure is because of the way that your ears work.

Sound travels into your ear canal as vibrations in the air.

Those vibrations hit your eardrum, that's like a sheet of skin, and it's converted into movements in a series of tiny bones.

These bones amplify the vibrations and send them into the cochlea, which is a hollow, spiral bone filled with fluid.

So, to put it simply, your ear takes vibrations in the air and converts them into waves of fluid inside your cochlea.

Then the final stage is that the walls of the cochlea are covered in hair cells with tiny filaments called stereocilia.

As these stereocilia move around in the waves of fluid, that is converted into electrical signals that are sent to your brain to be processed as sound information.

So why do we lose hearing as we age?

Comparison of healthy stereocilia against damaged stereocilia

The stereocilia are responsible for converting the sound into brain signals. And over time, these tiny filaments break and become damaged.

But here's the problem; they don't regrow.

Unlike most other cells, they are not genetically programmed to regrow.

So you just have less and less stereocilia over time which means your brain is getting less and less information.

That's why you lose your hearing as you get older.

For some people, they lose less stereocilia so they are still able to hear fine. But for others, they lose more and they notice that they have hearing loss. That's what has happened to you.

This is mostly down to genetics but you can also do more damage to your ear through exposure to loud noises, as well as some drugs and toxins.

Why can't we just make the stereocilia regrow?

One day, we will probably find a way to do this.

There was some promising research in Harvard Medical School in 2023 that showed that they could use a very specific cocktail of drugs to make some ear cells divide and regenerate in mice. This is called gene therapy.

But even though this is an exciting development, it's much too early to know what this will lead to, or if it will even be possible to do the same for humans.

So, it's likely that any treatment like this is still decades away. It's very unlikely to happen in our lifetime.

Using so-called "gene therapy" also needs years and years of careful testing to make sure that it's safe.

If there is no cure for hearing loss, what should I do?

Life with hearing loss compared with life without hearing loss

We can't cure the root cause of your hearing loss but we CAN treat the symptoms.

If your hearing loss is severe, where you really can only hear loud sounds or shouting, then you will need to see a doctor.

But when you have mild to moderate hearing loss, it's still extremely important to treat these symptoms.

Living with hearing loss is hard.

It makes communication difficult but it also makes you much more stressed, anxious and lonely.

And all of these problems get worse over time.

As the months and years go by, your friends and family will also start to subconsciously exclude you more and more, because communication has become so difficult.

So what are my options?

The three options for treating mild to moderate hearing loss

You really have 3 options:

Option 1. Do Nothing

This is a very bad idea. The problems you face now will only become worse.

Option 2. Get a Prescription Hearing Aid From A Doctor

If your hearing loss is severe, this is likely your only option, and perhaps even surgery for a cochlear implant. You will need to see a doctor to find out.

For mild to moderate hearing loss, one of the biggest problems is price — a pair of prescription hearing aids in the U.S. can cost around $4,672 according to federal data, and people in this category may not need to spend this much.

You will also have to pay all of the costs of doctors and audiologists on top of this.

This is one reason why tens of millions of American adults are currently living with untreated hearing loss.

Option 3. Try An FDA-Cleared OTC Hearing Aid

Since the FDA cleared over-the-counter hearing aids in 2022, adults with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss can now buy a regulated device directly, without a prescription or an audiologist visit.

It's called a Nebroo hearing aid.

What is a Nebroo hearing aid?

This is a small device that you place in your ear canal.

Everything is contained in the device so there is no large case sitting behind your ear and this makes it almost invisible to the people you're talking to.

The Nebroo processes the sounds around you, improving the sound quality, before sending it down your ear canal.

Even though you have lost many of your stereocilia, there are still many that are working normally.

But a hearing aid must do more than just increase the volume of the sound around you.

How does Nebroo make it so easy to hear people talk?

The Nebroo contains a microchip called Vox Humana.

It was designed and programmed so it does not just amplify, but improve the clarity of human speech.

This means that conversation become clear and stress-free.

This helps you hear people speaking even with noise in the background.

The Vox Humana chip enables you to become part of the conversation again.

So how much does it cost?

This is the most impressive part of the Nebroo hearing aid.

It was actually designed to be a high quality solution that every American could afford.

And by selling directly to consumers with no middlemen, Nebroo has set the full retail cost at $330.

But that's not what you have to pay.

Right now there is a way to get the Nebroo for even less.

"I could hear people talking to me without a lot of background noise"(Verified Purchase) — I finally got the settings correct so I wore one to church today. I only wore one because I am putting some drops in my other ear (doctor prescribed, only temporary) and didn't want to get the drops in the hearing aid. I could hear people talking to me without a lot of background noise and without nodding & smiling, pretending to hear them. Thank you so much!
