What is BMI and How This Tool Works
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a widely used method to assess whether your weight is appropriate for your height. It provides a simple numerical value that helps classify your body weight into categories such as underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. This BMI Calculator helps you estimate your BMI by entering your height and weight. It also provides a personalized explanation of your result and offers general recommendations to guide you toward a healthier range if needed. While BMI is a useful screening measure, it does not directly assess body fat or account for muscle mass, so it’s best used as a general guideline alongside professional medical advice.
👉 Note: For accurate medical advice, consult your pediatrician.
