Hi, I have hypothyroidism and have been taking 88 mcg, but now tsh value is 0.25 and the doctor has asked to take 25 mcg under the assumption that I am taking 50 mcg and we are planning to have baby soon. So can I not take medicine for a week and then check after one week again and resume the dose accordingly?
