    After hypothyroidism is normal, it is generally not possible to stop the drug, because thyroid hormone is the hormone of normal metabolism of the human body, and it is an important hormone to maintain the excitability of normal organs and tissues of the body, and the production of hypothyroidism is mostly caused by the reduction of thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion, and the cause of hypothyroidism is generally the disease of the thyroid gland itself, such as hypothyroidism caused by Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and can also be seen in hypothyroidism caused by radionuclide iodine 131**, as well as caused by thyroid surgery. These conditions are caused by a gradual decrease in the synthesis and secretion of thyroid hormones, so hypothyroidal replacement** is lifelong and generally cannot be discontinued. After stopping the drug, some symptoms of hypothyroidism can occur, such as fatigue, sluggish expression, less frequent stools, myxedema, etc. In most cases, patients with hypothyroidism disease need to take drugs for a long time, and they should go to the hospital regularly for re-examination in the future, so as to ensure the health of the body, because hypothyroidism is likely to occur, so it must be controlled in many aspects such as diet, and it is best to eat light and mild food.

    You can try to stop the drug to observe, if after stopping the drug, the thyroid function is normal every month, which means that the thyroid gland's ability to synthesize thyroid hormone returns to normal, at this time the drug can be stopped, but most hypothyroidism is lifelong, so there is no symptomatic drug that can improve the ability of the thyroid gland to synthesize thyroid hormone, and lifelong supplementation of drugs is required, so you must go to the hospital regularly for reexamination.
