Greg, thank you so much for your reply. I do have hypothyroidism and take medicine for it. Time for a re-check? Maybe so! At 56, I am perimenopausal and take bio-identical hormones. Time for a re-check? Maybe so! The tinnitus appeared suddenly, unilaterally, at age 54. It has progressed to...

Thank you SO MUCH for your kind reply. After your reply, I put a sound machine in my bedroom, just in case it is too quiet now that it is winter.

Thank you for your kind reply. I do not know another way to describe this besides "nocturnal". I live in the south where the cicadas and the tree frogs are LOUD. I mean, L.O.U.D. :) and so, the bedroom is not a quiet place until winter. The tinnitus I experience is just so qualitatively...

Hello, I very much need to find people who experience tinnitus the way I do. At night, while sleeping, it gets super loud, all over head ringing, or mainly unilateral super loud, or sometimes bi-lateral super loud. A high-pitched hiss, tonal tinnitus. In the morning, as I wake, it subsides...

Hello, I have had tinnitus for the last 20 months. It is not hearing loss based or acoustic trauma induced. I think it is hormonal as I am menopausal. It started out unilaterally and became bilateral just within the last few months. My question is this: In the evening when I start to relax...

Following up to this thread: can we get an update on everyone who posted here? Also... what do you think the answer is? Stay completely off alcohol and hope the rebalancing occurs or continuing drinking in small amounts to try to ward off it getting worse? Thank you for your help.

Hormone replacement therapy for chronic tinnitus in menopausal women: Our experience with 13 cases

Hello, I am a 54 year old, happily married female, who decided to quit drinking the 3 glasses of red wine I was drinking with dinner, every night, for a several years. When I realized how bad alcohol really is for us, even fancy red wine, I stopped, cold, on January 1st. I had ZERO withdrawal...
