BMI Calculator

BMI stands for Body Mass Index. It uses your height and weight to help understand whether your weight falls within a healthy range for your height.

Height

BMI doesn’t directly measure body fat and may not accurately reflect overall health for everyone, including people with high muscle mass, pregnant women, children, older adults, certain ethnic groups, or those with medical conditions. BMI is only one measure of health and does not determine eligibility for weight loss medication. A healthcare provider will consider your overall health and medical history to determine whether treatment is right for you.

How this is calculated. Uses the standard imperial formula: 703 × weight in pounds ÷ (height in inches)², and the CDC’s adult weight-status categories.
