What this calculator does

This tool calculates BMI from entered height and weight. BMI cannot determine health by itself. It does not capture all differences in growth or body composition. Children and teenagers need age- and sex-specific growth-chart interpretation by a qualified healthcare professional; adult cut-offs should not be applied.

How to use it

  1. Choose units
  2. enter height
  3. enter weight
  4. treat the result as general information only.

Formula and calculation method

BMI = weight in kilograms ÷ (height in metres × height in metres).

Worked example

At 1.70 metres and 65 kilograms, BMI is approximately 22.5. This number alone does not establish health status.

Important information

BMI cannot diagnose a condition. For children and teenagers, consult a qualified healthcare professional for age- and sex-specific interpretation.
