Your body will not start secreating thyroid hormones until there is none found in the blood stream, so tapering is just prolonging the inevitable. Taking proper supplements to kickstart your thyroid again is the only way to prevent rebound and to quickly restore thyroid function. It the same as taking AAS, you do pct's for kickstarting your natural test, you don't waste 3-4 weeks slowly tapering off of test.
