Obese people are more likely to experience subjective tinnitus, which is the only
audible perception of sound that patients describe in the absence of any disease.
Males with tinnitus have worse scores on many sexual function measures than males
in good health. A new study published in 2021 reported that erectile dysfunction
(ED) and tinnitus are connected. Men with tinnitus and ED experience disruptions
in penile and cochlear functions due to a sedentary lifestyle and cardiovascular and
psychological issues that accompany it.
