I failed my Hearing Test, despite being, as I thought still able to hear perfectly well. I was advised to be fitted with Hearing Aids. What a difference, once over the stigma; it made me realise how much I was struggling with my hearing. I have now been wearing hearing aids for over a year and can't imagine what it would be like without them.

Can your hearing get worse if you don't wear hearing aids?
This is a tough question, and the exact answer you get may depend on the specific hearing professional you see. The actual hearing loss may not increase if one does not get hearing aids, but your "word discrimination" can decrease. This means that your understanding of words can decrease. The real question is if you are willing to chance your hearing or understanding because you didn't get hearing aids when you were told you needed them. Now, if you are gradually losing hearing, the rate of that happening won't increase if you fail to use hearing aids. Even if you do wear hearing aids, you may still have to switch to stronger ones with time. It is even possible that hearing aids for correcting profound hearing loss might contribute to the loss, particularly if nerve impairment is the issue.
Would you provide Hearing aids for moderate hearing loss in a 22 month old child?
Absolutely! A child with even a mild hearing loss must have hearing aids in order to develop optimally. Children learn language through hearing and without hearing aids you are making it very difficult for the child to learn to speak and understand. This is such a concern to public health and educators that most countries in the world have implemented infant hearing screening progrmas at considerable cost. The benefits are so big that they justify the cost. By diagnosing hearing loss early and intervening (eg. fitting hearing aids) early you can significantly improve a child's outcomes. What many people also fail to realize is that we also learn a lot of other information from our families and others around us by overhearing how, for example, our parents talk and handle other situations (such as social situations). So hearing loss also impact social and emotional development. I equate sending a child with hearing loss out into the world without hearing aids to sending a normal functioning child out into the world with their hands tied behind their back. They can do it but you are making their lives incredibly difficult. Good luck

How can I test my pitch hearing?
The Hearing tests are required by some employers and industries to maintain pass licenses and perform certain job duties. Industrial hearing tests are pass or fail, but the specific industry you're testing may determine how much hearing loss is allowable. Hearing tests done for medical purposes use the same testing pass or fail protocol; however, they're used to determine if someone has normal hearing or a certain degree of hearing loss. Even though it's impossible to cheat on a hearing test in order to pass, following these steps will prepare you for taking a hearing test and ensure accurate test results.Probing in your ears can push earwax deeper and cause bleeding or irritation. During the exam, the clinician will check your ears, and if your ears need cleaning she will tell you.
