What natural product can quiet my Tinnitus
I have had tinnitus for 28 yrs and I have hearing loss and the sound has increased. I have tried many natural products. Would appreciate any information that is available because I am truly desperate.
Thank you

If you are a woman and over the age of 38ish your tinnitus may be caused from loss of estrogen. Hormones are natural, your body makes them. May want to check out Dr. Mary Haver's posts about how menopause affects the inner ear.
Type “Tinnitus” and “Cognitive Behavioral Therapy” into a search engine.
You will find things like this:
“I'll never have peace and quiet again."
"I can still find peace and feel calm through relaxation exercises, even if the environment isn't totally quiet."
“This noise is ruining my life."
“The noise is annoying, but it is not dangerous to my health. I can still enjoy my day-to-day life."
“I'll never be able to sleep or concentrate again."
“I can focus on my tasks and fall asleep by using background sound or white noise to reduce the contrast of the tinnitus."
“My tinnitus is louder today, so my hearing must be failing."
“Tinnitus volume fluctuates. The ringing is just a symptom of auditory processing; it doesn't mean I am going deaf."
A long time ago, I printed a list of “Thoughts and Alternate Thoughts about Tinnitus,” which appeared on the internet.
I can’t find the source or I would have posted that link here.
It has been very helpful for pulsatile tinnitus and other problems as well.
