Age-Related Hearing Loss treatment in Magdalena Contreras

Age-related hearing loss is the progressive loss of hearing that appears naturally over the years, usually affecting both ears gradually.

Frequent symptoms: difficulty following conversations, especially in noisy environments, a need to turn up the volume, and the sense that others are speaking quietly.

When to see a doctor? An evaluation is a good idea when it becomes hard to understand what others are saying or when hearing interferes with daily life.

Which specialist treats it? The otolaryngologist and the audiologist evaluate hearing and provide guidance on the available options. If you notice that hearing has become more difficult over time, scheduling a hearing evaluation is a good step.
