Link Between Osteoporosis and Hearing Loss

Osteoporosis causes a weakening in the structure of a person’s bones that can lead to frequent and severe breaks, poor posture, and back pain. Can it also affect your hearing? According to one recent study, people with osteoporosis are 76 percent more likely to develop sudden onset hearing loss, which develops either immediately or over a few days and often only affects one ear. Osteoporosis causes demineralization in the three very delicate bones of the inner ear that help transmit sound. This link means that people with osteoporosis should pay close attention to their hearing and communicate any changes to their doctor no matter how small they may seem or how intermittent they may be.

Hearing loss varies by cause, type, and degree. Its effects can be due to disease, heredity, a noisy environment, or the aging process. To find the most appropriate solution to your particular hearing impairment, rely on the services of a hearing aid specialist. At ABSOLUTE HEARING SOLUTIONS, we present this column to educate the public on hearing loss and its effects and to help inform the millions of men, women, and children with hearing problems that help is available. Don’t suffer in a world of silence. 

P.S. Researchers are looking into the possibility that anti-osteoporotic therapies that improve bone quality may also decrease the risk of sudden onset hearing loss.
