type of hearing aid - #15026

Aayan

I am trying to figure out the best type of hearing aid for my situation. Just last month I started noticing my hearing getting worse, especially in crowded places like restaurants or when my kids are talking to me while the TV is on. It's super frustrating! I went to the audiologist, and they mentioned a few different types of hearing aid options, but honestly, I got overwhelmed. There's the behind-the-ear ones, in-the-ear, and some that are really tiny and sit inside the ear canal, which I kinda thought were cool but also worry they might not be powerful enough. My grandfather always used a type of hearing aid that made loud noises sound softer, but I don’t remember what it was called. I’d love to know from anyone here what type of hearing aid you've found works best for you. Like, do smaller ones really pack the same punch as the big ones, and is it worth looking into the latest tech with Bluetooth or whatever? I just don't want to invest a lot of money into something that won't help. Any advice on choosing the right type of hearing aid would be greatly appreciated!
