1. A method for producing a hearing aid with a housing and an antenna module arranged in the housing, the antenna module having a receptacle space, and an electronic component of the hearing aid arranged in the receptacle space, the method comprising:
producing a prefinished antenna module by:
providing an assembly body;
applying a magnetic layer to the assembly body and subsequently applying a winding to the assembly body;
the assembly body defining the receptacle space;
alternatively forming the assembly body as a sleeve-shaped hollow body having a cavity defining the receptacle space or removing the assembly body to define the receptacle space being a free space formed by a removal of the assembly body;
subsequently introducing the electrical component into the receptacle space of the prefinished antenna module; and
placing a unit formed by the electrical component and the antenna module into the housing.
