Abstract
Background: Estrogen has been found to play an important role in a variety
of organ systems. Recently estrogen has been discovered to be produced in the
human brain and is thought to contribute to central auditory processing. Following
menopause, when estrogen levels are low, many women report hearing loss but
show no deficits in peripheral hearing sensitivity, lending credence to the idea that
estrogen influences central auditory processing. Although there has been a lot of
research done on estrogen and hearing loss in animals, there hasn’t been much done
on the human model
