How to calculate your Body Mass Index (BMI)

Understanding your Body Mass Index (BMI) can help you estimate whether your weight falls within a healthy range for your height. Use the calculator below to quickly determine your BMI based on standard medical guidelines.

BMI is a screening measurement calculated from height and weight. It is commonly used by health professionals to classify weight ranges such as underweight, normal weight, overweight, and different levels of obesity. While useful as a general indicator, BMI does not directly measure body fat and does not account for factors such as muscle mass, age, sex, or overall health.

Enter your height and weight in the fields below. The calculator will automatically display your BMI result along with the corresponding weight category.
