The Allahabad Farmer Vol. LXVIII, January - 2013 No. 2The questionnaire includes all the details about the OCP and Auditory and VestibularcomplaintsAfter following ENT evaluation the subjects were undergone serial audiometrictest. audiometric test bettery includeed PTA, SPEECH AUDIOMETY, IMPEDANCEAUDIOMETRY.PTA for both the ear were plotted using ALPS (AD2100) audiometerfrom 250HZ to 8000HZ (AIR) and 250HZ to 4000HZ (Bone) testing withASCENDINGDESCENDIN method.Speech audiometry was carried out for recording SRT&SDS using PBwords andspondee words (in Telugu). Both the test for audiometry and speech audiometry wascarried out under TDH39P headphones and B72 bone vibrator. Immitance audiometrywas carried out with an MAICO MA52 by instructing the patient by not to swallow andholding breath during testing for the Middle ear Status and auditory reflexes.The test protocols were carried out in a soundproof room with controlled noiseback ground and calibrated instrument according to ANSI (1990).RESULTSAudiological test battery was administered on the 10 subject. audiometric resultsshows the impact of oral contraceptives on all the subjects, showing the sensitivity ofOCP on ear, where the PTA Threshold degree ranges from moderate to moderatelysevere .30% subjects shows SN loss also reporting vertigo, tinnitus on ENT evaluation,20% were with high frequency hearing loss complaining of vertigo .20% mixed hearingloss with tinnitus .1 progressive SN loss with diseqilibrium .1 sudden conductive withdizziness and 1 otosclerosis without any complaint in ENT evaluation.Speech audiometry was done and result have shown correlation with SRT andSDS.SRT results ranges between 40-70 (RT & LT) & SDS ranges 60-95% (RT &LT). Tympanometry has shows A type in 60% of subjects (SNHL, HIGH FREQUENCYHEARING LOSS, PROGRESSIVE HEARING LOSS) Ad type in 20% subjects(MIXED & SUDDEN HEARING LOSS) C type in 10% subject (MIXED) As type in1 subject (?otosclerosis).Reflexometric test results are reported to be absent reflexes in 70% of subjectsthose who have sensory neural hearing loss, mixed hearing loss, conductive hearing loss,and high frequency hearing loss. Right ear reflexes are elevated and left ear reflexes areabsent in 30% subjects with progressive sensory neural hearing loss, sudden conductivehearing loss and otosclerosis.120

How ever use of oral contraceptives for a period of minimum 6 monthsmay not cause auditory/vestibular alterations this present study shows a significant auditoryvestibular alterations as the doses used was more than 6 month.Audiological evaluation showing a significant alteration on hearing threshold. Thatis Right mean value is 54dB. and Left mean is 59.3dB. with a auditory threshold rangingfrom mild-moderately severe form. The results of the vestibular tests showed 30%selected sample complained of verigo, 30% complained of tinnitus, 10% reporteddisequilibrium, 10% complained of dizziness and 10%reported vestibulitis.121
