sometimes theoretically even when you need to reduce your dose,the change in dosage may be uncomfortable to your body so please observe and consult your doctor whenever needed

Your TSH is normal. If you have been on thyroxine 100mcg ,there is no need of changing the medications.  Continue the same dose.
Next Steps
Check TSH after 3 months
