Hearing loss getting worse in 4yrs
HiMy daughter was born with a sensorial mild to moderate hearing loss and she started wearing hearing aids around the age of 9 months.
I used to take her for evaluation every 3 months and we noticed when she was about 2.5 years that it started getting worser, now she is a moderate to severe and can't do without the aids
Since there was no family history of such problem and the doctors couldn't explain the reason for her being born with it,we do not know how it'll progress and if she will eventually go deaf.
Her doctor is hopeful that this progressive loss is due to her ears growing and so, the loss of energy in the canal (as she explained) and that we have to keep monitoring her every 4 months now until she turns 5 and her ears stop growing.
As you can imagine I do not want to just wait and see, so please tell me if there is anything I can do improve her hearing or at least stabiles it.
Thank you

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS FIRST BEFORE ANSWERING QUESTIONS:
Homeopathy works only if you give truthful answers, no matter how awkward or intimate. If you dont want to do that, its better you stop here and dont proceed.
Please reply to all that is being asked and give details.
Short answers such as Yes/No/Normal are not helpful.
I want answers which explain the What, When, Where, Why, Better by & Worse by.
Example: I have a sore throat (it explains the what), since 3 days (it explains when), on the left side of my throat (explains where), due to eating sour food (explains why), the pain is better when I drink warm tea (explains Better by), the pain is worse when I swallow food (explains worse by)
Please leave the questions in place and give your answers under each of them.
I cant prescribe if these directions are not fully adhered to.

Q-27: Is she usually cold or warm.
Does she like indoors or outdoors.
Give details of eczema where, how does it look, any itching, any pus etc. How do you control it.
How were adenoids cured.
Q-39: Need a close up picture of her hand nails.
I can't prescribe without these details.

A lot of time she sings outloud or just scream any sound expressing her happiness, but at the same time she gives hugs and kisses and say I love you and thank you for the tiniest thing and love to dress like a girl mostly light colors and have her hair looking good all the time and even likes nailpolish
27. Doesn't really show a preference she will complain if it's too hot or too cold but at night a lot o times she removes her covers
She likes playing outside of course but with company outherwise she gets borred and she askes also to go home so she can draw or get me to read her stories
The first winters the eczema was only a 1 spot no larger than a nickle on her leggs a nd butt
This year though she had had few spots on her hand and wrist and even a couple small on her face and a couple on her leg
It usually is a group of small pimples of a light pink color, no pus and the spots on her legs itch but not too much
I use an all natural royal jelly body butter, it really helps,if I'm consistent (at least twice a day) all is gone in a week at most
For her adenoids, The homeopathy treatment didn't really help and I didn'nt want to go with the adenoidectomie so I used a traditional phyto therapy treatment organic dried figs in olive oil and after letting it sit for at least 3weeks I gave her about 1 tsp first thing in the morning
SarDah last decade
I forgot to mention that for the constipation I've given her half a dose of miralax almost daily for at least 4 months now

As fer the eczema she only has it in the cold season,and when it gets warm and humid all the spots are gone
SarDah last decade
Was it planned
How is your relationship with your husband
How was your daughter's hearing loss identified
fitness last decade
I didn't see the need to it as she is not snoring, no infections and each time that she had the hearing reevaluation she didn't have any fluids in her ears
As for the eczema, she has it during the cold season and with the heat and humidity it's all gone,if I notice anything in the future I'll be uploading a photo
I'd appreciate it if you tell me please the need for all these details for improving her hearing.
SarDah last decade
I still appreciate you explaining the need for the details
The pregnancy wasn't planned
I got pregnant less than 2months after we got married
I remember one thing although it's irrelevant, we where doing some home renovation and I told my husband this baby is gonna be deaf from all the hammering noise.
The morning sickness lasted a few weeks into the 2 trimester during which I had some really bad heart burn that made my chest and my right arm hurt, and also I had itching all over the body specially arms and legs for which I was given some medicine ( do not remember the name) that although it had worked in less than a week it made me so depressed I had to stop it
The total weight gain was exactly 30 lb. and I lost all of it a week after delivery at most
And since the baby was big I had a planned c-section and she was born 9 lb. 13 oz
The hearing loss was suspected at the hospital at birth when she didn't pass the hearing screening test and later confirmed with more testing
As for my relationship with my husband we make a good team and I'm very happy in my marriage .
SarDah last decade
Was it a wanted baby.
Explain the depression after taking that medicine.
Why was the baby big, are you diabetic or are you and your husband big or anything else.
fitness last decade
About the depression, I was really sad and cried a lot and nothing could cheer me up with no reason so I read the side effects on the pills I and there it was so I stopped it
I am pretty tall,always have been above average and we did some tests on my daughter and her hormones are ok, so they concluded she just takes after me.
My husband isn't exeptionnaly tall for a man though
