Does Menopause Tinnitus Go Away?

Written by Stephanie Johnson - February 26, 2023

The answer is yes, menopause tinnitus does go away. However, it can take time and may require some medical intervention. Many women experience an increase in symptoms once they have gone through hormonal changes associated with menopause. Tinnitus can be one of these symptoms that increases during this time.

Tinnitus is caused by an abnormality in the auditory system. This abnormality causes ringing, buzzing or clicking noises in the ears that are not from an external source. It is a common symptom of menopause and occurs more often in post-menopausal women due to hormone fluctuations.

Menopausal tinnitus can vary from woman to woman but typically includes ringing sounds in one or both ears as well as a feeling of fullness or pressure around the ears. Other symptoms such as headaches and decreased hearing sensitivity may also be present.

The good news is that most menopausal tinnitus can be managed and even treated if necessary. Here are some tips for managing menopausal tinnitus:

  • Reduce stress levels – Stress can worsen the symptoms of tinnitus so it's important to find ways to manage your stress levels such as yoga or meditation, exercise or talking with friends or family about any worries you may have.
  • Avoid loud noise – Exposure to loud noise can cause further damage to your hearing and make the tinnitus worse so limit your exposure to noisy environments like concerts, nightclubs or sporting events where possible. Wear earplugs when needed or reduce the volume on your headphones/music player whenever possible.
  • Quit smoking – Smoking has been linked to increasing risk of hearing loss and tinnitus symptoms so try cutting down on cigarettes if you're a smoker.
  • Diet – Eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals such as zinc, magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids may help reduce the severity of your tinnitus symptoms so try increasing foods like nuts, seeds, dark green vegetables and fish into your diet plan.

It's also important to talk with your doctor about potential treatments for menopausal tinnitus including medications (such as steroids) which could help reduce inflammation as well as hormone replacement therapy for those experiencing drastic hormone fluctuations after menopause (HRT). If medication isn't an option then alternative therapies such as hypnosis or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) could provide relief through relaxation techniques and retraining yourself how to respond mentally when you hear a ringing sound in your ears - it's all about conditioning!
