I don't know of any connection to thyroid cancer. Levothyroxine is what your thyroid makes.
Some people recover from thyroiditis, and no longer need the hormone. It is fairly common for women to become mildly hypo after delivering a baby, take the hormone for a while, and then go off eventually.
Only when the thyroiditis damages cells, and they can no longer produce hormone is external hormone given for life.
Did you test positive for the Hash antibodies?
