Lullaby — Helps you treat Tinnitus, a chronic health condition
Lullaby helps treat Tinnitus, a condition that makes you hear a very annoying sound for the rest of your life.
Most of the ENTs I checked with seemed poorly prepared to help their patients with the stress, so the app teaches you a healthy way to do that.

My wife suffers this. I will send her the link and see if she will try it out.
If it does benefit in some way, I am sure she will share it with the groups she is on that have fellow sufferers on them.

Hi Product Hunt! Lullaby is a medical product, which usually means "not very fun", but I'll do my best to explain what the app is about so it can hopefully help other people.
Lullaby is a treatment plan for Tinnitus, a chronic condition that makes you hear a very annoying sound for the rest of your life (there's actually a "demo" in the site). I've found that most of the ENTs I checked with are very poorly prepared to help their patients with the stress created by this condition.
After a ton of research I've found that there's only a couple treatments that actually work (and a ton of snake oil), so I did what any developer would do, which is condense them in an app and link all the papers and source code so you can double check my work if you want.
The app is extremely simple. It guides you through a diagnostic process and builds a personalized treatment based on TRT that helps people become habituated to the sound with white noise. At the most basic level, you can use it to help you sleep, which helps rack up the 3 hours a day target.
I don't want to make any empty promises, but I can say that I've gotten great results, very in line with the papers I've read on the subject, so I have a strong suspicion that this can actually help for other people with this condition, even if it's just as a source of research.
That's about it, thanks for reading and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have!
I upvoted! Tinnitus Retraining Therapy or TRT is such an underestimated form of treatment for Tinnitus. I hope you guys have a ton of users. I also like the fact that the management team has said that this app won't be a miracle solution. With Tinnitus, a total resolution is quite rare. But, even a small improvement to the condition can mean a greatly improved quality of life.
For those perennially looking for Tinnitus relief, there's other things you can do as well. Check your Vitamin D, B12 and Magnesium levels. Get your ear wax and hearing checked out. Even what you eat has a rather profound effect on your Tinnitus. Here's a good starting point for research on natural Tinnitus relief. https://tinnitusandyou.com/11-na... - Best of luck to Lullaby and all Tinnitus sufferers out there!
