Endo and ringing in ears

[Pearly_88]

Hey ladies hope your pain behaving today. My ears having been ringing consistently, is louder when I try stand up or do something. Getting fed up with it along with everything else like you all put up with. I read few articles and study that a majority of ladies with endo get this like titnitus. It's not just in endo people with it, people with limbs missing or some condition that effect the body apparently, it's the brains way helping to manage the pain. Fascinating really I was wondering if any of your ears ring and what you do to help it or advice you know of?

I'm sure I have tinnitus from my symptoms, it only seems to be in my left ear. I should get it checked really but can't bear another medical appointment! :/

I get really bad tinnitus! I never assumed it was anything related to this though so thats really interesting

Hi - I also recently started getting this, in addition to the usual migraine auras. Very annoying. I assume it's yet another manifestation of my body's constant state of red alarm ...

Low vitamin B12 levels can be attributed to tinnitus. Maybe worth having a look online for symptoms of B12 deficiency to see if you have any others and you can get tested by your doctor? Folate needs to be tested too as they work hand in hand to absorb. Hope it goes away soon.

I had heard that long term use of some pain killers also leads to tinnitus, worth checking the patient leaflet of any drugs you take to see if it's listed as a side effect maybe?

Never taken things like this. I've got tinnitus from time to time for a few seconds, especially when I'm tired.

I've been having terrible tinnitus for several weeks now, plus some hearing loss in my left ear. It's a nightmare! Have been on prednisone but it's not helping, just making me feel bloated and jumpy. Had an MRI recently to rule out tumors, too. I mentioned a possible connection to my ENT and of course he thought the idea was ludicrous

Has anyone found any way to alleviate it?

Hi, I get this too but hadn’t got round to checking it out with everything else goin off. I never thought it could be linked to endo but maybe it could be If a few of us have this x

[Endosufferer1]

Yes, I do. Never knew it was related. It now makes sense!

Mine is a vibration not ringing.

I experience this and find myself scratching my ears when I’m in pain. I had an ex that would always tell me to stop playing with my ears😭
