IMPORTANT CONTEXT

When BMI needs careful interpretation

Children and teenagers

People aged 2–19 need BMI-for-age and sex percentiles. This adult calculator deliberately does not classify them.

Pregnancy and body composition

BMI may be unsuitable during pregnancy and can misclassify very muscular people, older adults or people with fluid retention, limb loss or some medical conditions.

Health is more than weight

BMI does not directly measure body fat or where it is stored. Waist size, fitness, diet, sleep, symptoms and clinical tests add important context.

This is a screening tool, not a diagnosis.

Do not use the result to start extreme dieting or medication. Speak with a qualified health professional if you are worried about your weight, have an eating disorder, are pregnant, or have recent unexplained weight change.

Clinical basis

The calculation and adult categories follow established public-health guidance. Read more from WHO, CDC and NHS.
