Lately i've had issues with the microphone. It doesn't record any voice and yet i am able to hear them.
How would i be able to make my microphone work without having to return it for repair or exchange?

I will suggest you check the microphone by doing a voice recording. After voice recording, if you can hear your voice then it means your microphone is ok. So, it might be due to a signal issue.
1.Unplug anything plugged into the headset jack.
2.If you're on a call and holding your phone next to your ear, speak into the microphone and make sure you don't block it with your fingers or shoulder.
3.If you're using a screen protector or case that covers the microphone, remove it. Clear any debris from the microphones.
4.Restart your device.
5.Update to the latest version of iOS.
Test the microphone
To find out if there is an issue with the microphone itself-and not the app you're using or your cellular connection-test the microphone with the built-in Voice Memos app. Speak into the microphone and then play back the recording. You should be able to hear your voice clearly.
*If you can't hear your own voice the microphone is not working properly, you should replace the piece of hardware.
Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Entertainment
Select Sound Recorder.
This will open a small inbuilt recorder. Record your voice and play it back.
If you can hear your voice, then your microphone and speakers are good. If not, you have an issue with your microphone or the audio system on your laptop.
You may replace your microphone if you find fault in it or please get your laptop checked if you find issue with your laptop's audio system.
The microphone may not be configured properly in Skype. If the person cannot hear you then, either your microphonedriver not installed or not working OR the microphone is not configured inSkype.

Does your microphone work with other applications. If you are running windows XP, go to Start>all programs>accessories>entertainment>sound recorder. Record your self and play it back. If you can hear yourself, then the issue is with skype. Make sure you go through the audio setup wizard in skype to get the best preformace out of your microphone. If no other programs work, then you may need to reinstall the drivers for that microphone and try it again.
Yep, same here.
