Reducing Thyronorm dosage should strictly be dependent on your TSH. Regular 6 weekly TSH should be done to monitor levels and adjust dosage accordingly. As you are 30 years old and in reproductive age, you might need to monitor more frequently - as and when you get pregnant your TSH will have to be below 2 for safe viability of pregnancy.
Do consult with proper medical and family history and I will guide you.
