Women Should Get Their Hearing Checked

If you want to remain healthy, you’ve got to get checkups. But what kind of tests do you need? Real Simple has a list of ten tests every woman should have. The first item on the list, a hearing test, is one that surprised me. After all, if you can’t hear, you would know it. Wouldn’t you?

But as I thought about it, it made sense. Too often we don’t realize we’re actually losing our hearing until it’s too late to correct it. Our ears can ring or feel plugged for a while before we actually lose our hearing. It’s that time that a hearing test could help stop hearing loss from getting worse.
