It's always difficult to hear strings degrade because it happens slowly and overtime. When you change your old strings out for new ones, you will hear the difference, because it is fairly drastic.

As for how long strings should last, that is up to you and depends on how much you play and how you store your guitar. If you play a lot, you can be okay with changing strings once every month or 2 months.
