This medicine is for pregnancy only. After delivery you need to check thyroid levels and then decide whether you need to continue or not.

Thyroid medication is generally for life At this  point of time you need to understand that thyroid levels should be less then 2.5 pre conceptionally and in the first trimester As of now you need to start taking a medication and get your thyroid levels checked every 45 days
