There is a strong link between hearing loss and depression, particularly in women. Hearing loss impacts one's ability to have meaningful conversations and maintain healthy relationships, which can lead to depression. Those with hearing loss often isolate themselves socially and stop engaging in activities, increasing their risk of depression. Studies show that over 11% of those with hearing loss suffer from depression, compared to 5% of the general population. Treatment for hearing loss, such as hearing aids, can help avoid unnecessary medication for depression by restoring one's confidence and ability to communicate.
