Hi everyone,
I’m in my second trimester and have had constant unilateral tinnitus (ringing/buzzing in my left ear) since 7 weeks pregnant—45 days and counting. It’s been incredibly stressful and is taking a toll on my mental health.
I’ve seen three ENTs, a few GPs, and my OB. All tests—hearing, bloodwork, blood pressure, iron—came back normal. No one can explain why it’s happening or how to treat it.
Most pregnancy-related tinnitus I’ve read about is pulsatile and develops later on. Mine is classic ringing and started early, with no clear trigger.
I had a miscarriage with a D&C on January 1st and then found out I was pregnant again March 22. I’m wondering if this event has any link to my sudden tinnitus, maybe hormones are out of wack?
My husband keeps reassuring me it’s a pregnancy symptom that will pass, but I’m scared it won’t. Has anyone else experienced this? Did it go away? Any advice or shared experiences would mean a lot. Thank you!
