Most people donโt think about getting their hearing tested until something feels off but by then, youโve often had hearing loss for years without realizing it.
Hereโs a simple guide to when you should be getting checked:
๐ถ Birth โ School Age โ>Newborns are screened at the hospital, but kids should be tested again before kindergarten and any time speech or learning concerns come up.
๐ง Ages 18โ40 Once if no symptoms. More often if youโre regularly around loud noise.
โ ๏ธ Ages 40โ60 โ>Every 3โ5 years. This is when subtle, early hearing loss tends to start showing up.
๐
Ages 60+ โ> Every 1โ2 years, no exceptions.
Hearing loss is gradual, it doesnโt announce itself. A quick test is the only way to know where you actually stand.
