Body Mass Index (BMI) is a screening tool for weight categories.
How Our Calculator Works
Enter your height and weight to get:
- BMI value
- Weight category
- Healthy weight range
- Trend analysis (with account)
Limitations and Considerations
BMI has limitations:
- Doesn't measure body fat directly
- May misclassify muscular individuals
- Doesn't account for age, sex, or ethnicity
Use BMI as a general screening tool alongside other health indicators.
