Anyone else have ear problems in Peri?

hi ladies Is anyone else having ear problems in peri? I have been getting ear pressure, ear fullness, ringing. It constantly changing but I never get a break from it. I noticed I used to get ear fullness around my periods but now it's just random at any time of the month. Not to mention the constant headaches I have since my peri anxiety started. I do take allergy medicine and nasal spray but not much difference in my ear symptoms. Is this another annoying peri symptom?

Yes i get that mostly the ringing i also had a period of heavy head felt full pressure eye pressure feel off balance too! The anxiety can cause all that too as well!

I also have had weird ear stuff going on.
Awhile back I had a popping sound in one ear, I just realized it has completely stopped.
But now I have the ear ringing. I have this most days. Some days low ringing, some pretty high.
(it goes away some days but comes back)

me :frowning:

I have fullness off and on and a fluttering sound

i had horrible ringing in the ear. went to an ear nose and throat doctor. he performed a couple of hearing tests and couldnt find anything wrong, thank god. he said it could be hormonal

Yes. My head pressure is always there. Has been for several years. Ears pop all the time. Almost like cabin pressure on an air plane. Certain sun glasses make indentations on my cheeks cuz my sinuses are always slightly swollen. Tried nasal spray, allergy meds, etc. Nothing seems to help. Now after 2 years menopausal, just trying to accept this as the “norm” :worried:

yes like cabin pressure on an airplane. it makes me off balanced sometimes.

thank you ladies for sharing your symptoms, I guess I will add all this my long list of peri symptoms.

i get that fluttering sound too. i took a muscle relaxer and it stopped. I’m guessing it was coming from tight neck muscles?? i still have it off and on

yes I have since this started a year ago.. I hate it ringing in the ear all the time it seems my left ear.. I havnt had things checked but hormones no period for 3 months then it’s back it all makes sense.. sorry to hear.. it’s awful it drives me crazy
..I notice it at night when its quiet in the house.. do u have anything that works for
u??

I get what sounds like rushing sound in my ears especially during a hot flash I hate it

I just had a cat scan because i have the same thing - pressure in the ears and head and headaches. It came back normal.

ur not alone dear
me too having same problem…ear pain, buzzing and fullness feeling in ear.
Dr gave me antibiotic ear drops..not much effective dear..
its one of Peri symtom i guess
Hang is there
Tk

yes I have that rushing sound in my right ear. Also some buzzing, rumbling on and off. Makes my head pressure worse when I get that rushing sound. why hormones have to create such havoc… :sob::sob:

As an update, today my ear ringing is gone!
That’s just for now. I just wonder why some days it is SOOO bad and now completely gone.

hi Angela unfortunately no I don’t have anything that works or helps my ear symptoms. I take melatonin to help me sleep sometimes. I blame it on anxiety brought on by peri. hopefully as our hormones settle, so will the symptoms
