❓ FAQs for Show Notes

Do supplements like Ginkgo or zinc cure tinnitus? No. Clinical studies show supplements perform no better than a placebo. The American Academy of Otolaryngology does not recommend them.


Are there any FDA-approved treatments for tinnitus? Yes. Lenire is the first FDA-approved bimodal neuromodulation device for tinnitus.


Can hearing aids help tinnitus? Absolutely. Over 40 peer-reviewed studies confirm hearing aids reduce tinnitus severity by restoring missing sound to the brain.


What is CBT for tinnitus? Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps patients reframe negative thoughts about tinnitus, reducing stress, anxiety, and distress.


Does sound therapy work? Masking and retraining therapies can help many patients. While not a cure, they support long-term habituation of tinnitus.
