What Ear Do You Use to Talk on the Phone?

I've been reading quite a number of posts from other people on this forum. One thing I notice is that people who have T on one side, myself included, have it in the right ear. For me myself, before T started, I've always talked on the phone using my right ear. I've read up somewhere that our left ear picks up more of the lower frequency sounds, which include our voices. This is something I came up with, but i have no scientific proof of. It is interesting though, thinking about it.

 

I use my left ear but tinnitus in both due to Menieres...lots of love glynis

 

Anyone that has tinnitus especially when it was caused by exposure to loud noise, in my opinion, shouldn't hold a mobile (cell) phone to their ear for longer than 5 mins. I always switch to hands-free when using a mobile phone. Landline phones I use normally. A neighbour of mine doesn't have tinnitus but used to use a mobile phone a lot because of his job. He recently told me, if he holds a mobile phone to is ear longer than 10 seconds his ear becomes extremely painful.

I have tinnitus in both ears and I'm taking no chances with sounds going directly into my ear. When I'm on the phone 99.999% of the time I use speaker phone.

 

I use speaker phone pretty much always now too, mine started in the same ear as I use the phone but it was a noise thing from DJ'ing so I don't think there's a link.

Saying that though, after using a mobile up to my ear my hearing goes dull for a while after and it feels uncomfortable. It is definitely doing something negative for me that I can feel.

 

I suddenly lost all hearing in my left ear in 2013 so I talk on the phone with my right ear. I hear noise in my left, deaf ear because of sound introduced in my right ear. It was talking on the phone that made me realize that the T in my deaf ear was caused by the sounds coming into my good ear.

 

T in both ears now but I have no choice but to use only my right ear for the phone........I'm deaf in the left one

 

Statistically T is most often in the left ear. I am right handed and I use the right ear, which I presume correlates in general.

 

I use the phone on my left ear.... Where my T is hmmm. I think I'll use speaker from now on

 

My T is in the left, I always used the left for the phone, now use speaker on mobile unless in public, but then limit call time. Use both ears on landline but even then I get a weird echo due to H.
