Thyroidsad,

HbA1C is negative for diabetes.

CRP is low, which is good.

Ferritin is optimal halfway through range to 100. Either eat more iron rich food or supplement a little iron with vitamin C to aid absorption. Take iron 4 hours away from Levothyroxine.

Magnesium and insulin are within range, so they're normal.

TSH 4.00 is almost top of range. If you are not yet diagnosed you'll usually need to wait until TSH is over the range at your GP's lab. If you are already taking Levothyroxine you need a dose increase to bring TSH to 1.0 or lower.

FT4 is low in range which makes me think you are not yet prescribed Levothyroxine. FT3 level is typical for someone not prescribed thyroid replacement.

Thyroid antibodies are negative for autoimmune thyroid disease (Hashimoto's).

Vitamin D is optimal around 100 so you could consider reducing dose if you supplement.

B12 is good, assuming you are supplementing.

Folate is good.
