Iodine has mucus clearing properties. I don't think that once a week would be sufficient to make your mucus go away, in fact you don't want your mucus to go away. Mucus is the fluid of the lungs, digestive tract, etc and serves very important functions.
You want excessive mucus to go away. If it were me, dealing with candida? and I saw the mucus clearing? I'd start upping my dose, gradually.

*edit* also~

yes... mucous is of great importance to the body, however too much can cause problems... Iodine sufficiency has an affect to thin the mucous which allows it to flow more freely.
because of eating habits, the diet generally causes more mucous to be generated in the body than is necessary. so, you may want to look into a mucousless food program to get an idea of how to keep amounts lower.

[edit note: ok, enough said already]
so, also check out ask dennishardy's mucous-less diet.
