How does hearing loss work?

hearing loss
Aaron H asked:


It’s an odd question, but what I mean is:

Is it a gradual loss of being able to hear certain frequencies, causing the clicks in speech etc. to become less obvious. Until one day you can hear hardly any frequencies so you’re basically deaf.

Or is it a gradual loss of sound as a whole just getting quieter? So you can hear all frequencies, but everything’s quieter. . .until you cannot hear anything at all?
