Common signs include frequently asking people to repeat themselves, turning up the TV or phone volume, struggling to follow conversations in noisy places, or hearing ringing in your ears. If friends or family have mentioned that you seem to miss things, a hearing evaluation is a good next step. Many people also benefit from a baseline test so future changes can be tracked over time.
