I'm new here and hoping some of you could help? Iv'e finally had my thyroid peroxidase antibody level tested due to primary infertility. Results were 26.7u/ml (normal range <9)
T4 is 15.6 pmol/L
T3 is 4.8pmol/L
TSH is 1.0mu/L.
I do have hypothyroidism diagnosed 2 years ago. Currently on 75mg levothyroxine. How can I lower my Thyroid peroxidase antibody level?

If you post your FT4 and FT3 results with the ranges members will advise whether your results are 'normal' or the more desirable 'optimal'.
Thyroid peroxidase antibodies are positive for autoimmune thyroid disease (Hashimoto's). There is no cure for Hashimoto's which causes 90% of hypothyroidism. Treatment is for the low thyroid levels it causes. Many people have found that 100% gluten-free diet is helpful in reducing Hashi flares, symptoms and eventually antibodies.
