Adjusting to the hearing aids
Adjusting to new sounds
• Sounds may seem loud or different. You may also notice
background noises that you haven't heard before. As
your brain learns to recognize and filter out these sounds,
they'll become less apparent over time.
TIP: Wear the hearing aids as much as possible to
become more quickly accustomed to new sounds.
• Your voice may seem loud at first. To help, practice talking
with a friend in a familiar environment before using the
hearing aids for other conversations.
• You might need to experiment with different hearing aid
settings as you try the hearing aids in new environments.
Over time, you'll find settings that work for you and won't
need to adjust them as often.
TIP: Be patient! It can take some people up to several
months to fully adjust to their hearing aids.
