Mr Parag Mittal, Thanks for the query. Hypothyroidism is a hormone (thyroxine) deficiency disorder. Thyroid gland which is supposed to produce that hormone is either not producing enough or nil. Since this is required for a number of vital metabolic functions in our body on day to day basis, plus for normal functioning of brain, maintaining body temperature etc, it has to be made available every day for life time. In other words, treatment has to go on for life time. There are hardly any side effects caused by it. Thanks.
