I am participating in one of the clinical trials, and one of the side effects is ringing in my ears consistently.
Almost seven days but nothing helped. I look forward to hearing from you,
It is only on the left side of the ear. I do not see ringing on the right side.
I can hear properly, and Dr check both ears and he can not see anything that can cause ringing in the ear.
You are dwscribing tinnitus. Etiology maybe viral.
I had this a couple of years ago,
Checked the " approved" guidelines on Google which recommended observation for several weeks and if no improvement see an ENT . Went to the ENT who felt these were bad guidelines and that I should have seen him ASAP. to prevent it frpm becoming permanent.
Precribed short course of prednisone resulting in rapid complete resolution with no recurrence
"Precribed short course of prednisone resulting in rapid complete resolution with no recurrence."
Prednisone has not affected my tinnitus. I first noticed tinnitus in 1987 after 20 years of motorcycling without earplugs. I began protecting my hearing, and the tinnitus has stayed faint and ignorable unless I think about it. I began taking 10 mg Prednisone 4 months ago (required with Abiraterone), and still have the tinnitus.
My 10 mg of pred does nothing for my tinnitus. Listening to loud music and using carpentry tools until I got the message and used ear protection but it was too late. It is tolerable and I tune it out most of the time and earplugs are always with me when using tools or on the bike.
I've been living with it (both ears) for 30 years and learned mentally how out to tune it out.
In fact when it's mentioned here or anywhere else.... it sort of sets it off...... but just live and ignore it....(put it in the back burner mentally)...
Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

I've had Tinnitus my whole life. I can remember thinking as a boy, that hissing snakes were coming down the hall at night to get me.However as you have said, my mind has mostly learned to ignore it. That is until my high end hearing began to fade. It is not at the kevel of profoundly impared. I wear top of the line state of the art hearing aids now. Much of the time before my tinnitus drown out high sounds. No longer the case.
I tried activating the tinnitus settings on the hearing aids I had before which helped to start with. Now my newest hearing aids make everything so clear I don't notice it at all.
Still, if you are having tinnitus for the first time, try changing diet. I know it helps for some people.
What hearing aids do you use.
I am sure my tinnitus was caused by all the noise I was exposed to in the USAF Air Force Reserve flying F-4s, various helicopters, HC-130s, machine guns firing next to your ears. It affect my left ear first about 6 months after I retired in 1994 and then the right one about a year later. VA denied it was related to my service of 33 years. Appealed and was still denied. Both ears ring at a different frequency which gets louder over the day. Always checking to see if I left some electronic devices on.
A small price to pay if you can destroy PCa.
In that department I am still doing great. Last meeting with my MO, he said, "I have nothing to tell you as your PSA is 0.0" I'm sure it was just < 0.001.
Getting denied coverage is BS. My dad was the skipper of a PT boat in WWII. His station at the helm was right beside a 50MM gun. They did not have hearing protection then. He had tinnitus right after the war and his hearing went down. He was covered by the VA all his life for hearing aids.
I, too, am suffering from tinnitus. About 3 weeks ago I was sitting in a restaurant with a particularly high level of background noise when the level of tinnitus felt as though it doubled. Oddly, it’s also more acute in my left ear. Overall, it’s as though someone lit a powerful firecracker right in front of me. I believe my increase in volume is a SE of the Orgovyx I’m taking—now in my 5th month. Org (Relugolix) is the only drug prescribed by my MO. My BP is averaging 184/84. I can hear the blood pumping in my left ear. Sometimes it feels like my eyeballs are going to pop out of my skull. Another reason I don’t sleep well anymore. The MD I consulted would not prescribe anything—said I seemed healthy enough because my diastolic was fairly low, that I should just keep monitoring it. Said my ears looked just fine. On the positive side, my PSA has dropped from 16.5 to .71. So, you’re ringing may also be due to higher BP due to your meds.
I had this recently also, part of a sudden hearing loss episode. I’d strongly recommend seeing an ENT ASAP.
It’s probably coincidental. I have had Ménière’s disease for 25 years and prostate cancer for six years. Tinnitus is a very common symptom of menieres disease.
Agree.
I have tinnitus but it seems to be diminishing. It resulted from abusing my ears playing guitar and also failing to protect my ears at a very loud concert. I use a white noise gizmo while I sleep. There's an app called Rain Rain for the iPhone.
