About BMI Calculator
BMI Calculator computes your Body Mass Index from height and weight in metric (cm/kg) or imperial (ft, in/lbs) units. The result is shown alongside the standard WHO weight category: Underweight, Normal weight, Overweight, or Obese.
BMI is a simple screening tool used by healthcare providers as one indicator of weight-related health risk. It's not a diagnostic tool and doesn't account for muscle mass, bone density, or fat distribution — but it provides a quick reference point.
The tool also shows where your BMI falls on a visual scale and what weight range falls within the Normal BMI category for your height.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the BMI categories?
Underweight: below 18.5 · Normal: 18.5–24.9 · Overweight: 25–29.9 · Obese: 30 and above. These are WHO standard categories.
Is BMI accurate for athletes?
No. BMI doesn't distinguish between fat and muscle. Athletes with high muscle mass often have elevated BMIs that don't reflect elevated health risk.
