What causes girls to have tinnitus?

In daily life, there are always friends who talk about their frequent tinnitus, which may last for a few seconds at the mildest and dozens of seconds at the worst. Among them, most of them are female friends, and the age group is also relatively young. Some people don't care about the trouble caused by occasional tinnitus, but some people are troubled by it. But in fact, the causes of tinnitus follow certain patterns. Understanding these causes in advance is crucial to preventing and treating tinnitus. Let’s learn about them together.

1. Excessive work pressure: In recent years, the proportion of white-collar workers suffering from tinnitus has increased significantly. Tinnitus is not only common among senior management personnel in companies, but many young white-collar workers are also troubled by it, mainly due to high work pressure, lack of sleep and many social engagements.

2. Endocrine disorders: Generally, women in menopause always complain about tinnitus, but hearing tests are normal. Sometimes they also have some unexplained symptoms. It is currently believed that endocrine disorders, decreased estrogen, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction in menopausal women are the main causes of tinnitus.

3. Emotional instability: Tinnitus is very likely to occur in people with emotional instability. Tinnitus symptoms are often severe in people with anxiety and depression. Emotional instability can cause tinnitus, and conversely, persistent tinnitus can aggravate emotional instability.

4. Long-term noise exposure: The strongest sound that the human ear can withstand is usually 90 decibels. If it exceeds this limit, even if you cannot feel it, the fragile and sensitive inner ear has been damaged. Irregular and highly irritating noise can cause greater damage to hearing. If you are often in such a noisy environment, you are prone to tinnitus.

Sufficient sleep and a stable mood are particularly important for treating tinnitus. In daily life, we should pay special attention to regulating our mental state, try to reduce social engagements, learn to reduce stress, develop good work and rest habits, and also try to avoid being in noisy environments. Of course, people with severe tinnitus still need to go to a regular hospital for examination and come up with the correct treatment plan as soon as possible.
