Fretting that Im going to end up with underactive thyroid

It seems to run in the family. My mum was diagnosed age 63, my sister age 49, and my niece age 20. I have been keeping an eye on things for a while so have blood tests every few years (plus Im prone to low iron and vit d so like to get checked.) So Ive just had the latest test results and yep, Im low iron, but also noticed that my TSH was 3.9 with a normal range cut off of 4.2. So its normal. But I've checked the past tests and in the last 6 years it has been steadily going up and if it continued on it's current trajectory I would be over the normal range limit early next year. I really dont know whether Im simply over thinking this given the result was normal!! Anyone able to advise?
