What to Expect: Adjusting to Your New Hearing Aids
Your first days with hearing aids can feel miraculous and full of unexpected sensations as you experience sounds you haven’t heard in a while. You'll notice improvements in your ability to understand speech in noisy environments, such as in restaurants or office spaces. You might also find you can enjoy clearer phone conversations and watch TV at a much lower volume than before.
But like new glasses, orthotic inserts, or many other improvements to your life, there’s a period of adjustment as you acclimate to your new devices. You’ll want to test out which settings are best for you in certain situations and learn to incorporate daily care and regular maintenance into your routine. It’s all to help you live life to the fullest, so please take a few moments to discover what you can expect from your transition to using hearing aids.
New Levels of Sound
When you first start using hearing aids, many everyday sounds—water running, bags of chips crinkling, keys jingling—will be louder than what you were experiencing before. You likely haven’t heard the high-frequency components of these sounds in a long time, and your brain simply needs some time to adjust to the rediscovered “normal.”
