Hello
Welcome To Ask A Doctor Service
I have gone through your question, I understand your concern.
Your Anti TPO ab is within normal range.
That means you can give a trial to stop levothyroxine after 4 month of therapy slowly.
Acter 4 months , start taking half of the dose you are taking. Then after 2 month can stop.
I hope your query is clear now.
Thanks and regards

Yes you got it right, but 1 thing-
before stopping, get serum t3, t4, tsh done, it should be within normal limits, otherwise continue 37.5 for next 2 months then repat thyroid profile, if normal, then stop.
90 percent chance that your thyroid profile will remain normal.
But if you are in rest of the 10 percent then you would have to restart therapy.
Hope for the best.
