Since last week my one ear feels kind of blocked and muffled, like im hearing less. Im 7 months along. Never had this before so wondering if its a pregnancy thing. Bit worried, planning to mention it to my gynac.
Dont panic but dont ignore either beta. Mild blocked feeling can be normal, but if u feel actual hearing change please see the doctor. They'll check ur ears and BP and put ur mind at ease.
I asked my doc about ear fullness once and she said hormonal changes and congestion can affect ears a bit during pregnancy. But she was clear, if hearing actually drops, get it examined properly. Better safe.
Honestly any change in hearing during pregnancy I would get checked properly, dont ignore it. Sometimes blocked feeling can be due to congestion or BP changes, but only a doctor can tell. Please dont self diagnose this one.
Some women feel a blocked or fuller ear feeling in pregnancy because of fluid and hormones, more like stuffiness than actual loss. But if u genuinely feel ur hearing has gone down, tell ur gynac right away, dont wait.
