Hearing health is vital to your overall well-being — yet it’s often overlooked. Just like regular eye exams or dental check-ups, hearing tests should form part of your routine health care. At Kind2Hearing, we’re committed to helping you understand when and why to test your hearing, so you can stay connected to the sounds that matter most.
Why Regular Hearing Tests Are Important
Hearing loss can occur gradually, making it easy to miss early warning signs. Regular hearing check-ups can:
- Detect issues before they worsen
- Prevent further damage
- Improve your quality of life
- Help you stay socially active and safe
How Often Should You Get a Hearing Test?
The frequency of hearing tests depends on your age, health history, and lifestyle:
Children (0–17 years):
- Newborns should be screened at birth
- Toddlers and school-aged children should be tested if speech delays or frequent ear infections occur
- Teens with noise exposure (like headphones or concerts) should be monitored every 2 years
Adults (18–50 years):
- Every 3 to 5 years, especially if you work in noisy environments
- Book sooner if you notice difficulty in hearing conversations, ringing in the ears, or frequent ear infections
Seniors (50+ years):
- Annually, as age-related hearing loss becomes more common
- Early detection can improve success with hearing aids and help prevent cognitive decline
Signs You May Need a Hearing Test Sooner
- Asking people to repeat themselves
- Turning up the TV volume frequently
- Struggling to follow conversations in noisy environments
- Experiencing ringing or buzzing in the ears (tinnitus)
