Hearing loss is diagnosed through a series of tests performed by an audiologist or ENT specialist. The process typically begins with a physical exam to check for any visible issues, such as earwax buildup or infection. Next, a hearing test, often called pure-tone audiometry, is conducted. During this test, you’ll be asked to listen to sounds at different frequencies and volumes to determine the softest sounds you can hear. Speech testing is also done to assess your ability to understand spoken words. In some cases, additional tests like tympanometry or imaging may be recommended to evaluate the condition of your middle and inner ear. Early diagnosis can help guide effective treatment options for hearing loss.
