Euthyroid state after therapy.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking Health care magic forum.

I have gone through your query.You were having hypothyroidism and by therapy with thyroxine (Thyrox 25) you attained an Euthyroid state (Normal functioning thyroid).So You should continue the therapy and have a regular follow up and TSH monitoring.You can do TSH every 3 months and if TSH is coming down lower then you can decrease dosage of drug and discontinue gradually.
Hope this may help you.Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
