Body mass index calculation

 Body mass index (BMI) is a value derived from the mass (weight) and height of a person. The BMI is defined as the body mass divided by the square of the body height, and is universally expressed in units of kg/m2, resulting from mass in kilograms and height in metres.

The BMI may be determined using a table or chart which displays BMI as a function of mass and height using contour lines or colours for different BMI categories, and which may use other units of measurement (converted to metric units for the calculation).

The BMI is a convenient rule of thumb used to broadly categorize a person as underweightnormal weightoverweight, or obese based on tissue mass (muscle, fat, and bone) and height. That categorization is the subject of some debate about where on the BMI scale the dividing lines between categories should be placed. Commonly accepted BMI ranges are underweight (under 18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (18.5 to 25), overweight (25 to 30), and obese (over 30).

Note:-Our BMI calculator for women is intended for women older than 20 years. If you are younger than 20 years, you must use BMI calculator for teens.
-The values of BMI for normal weight range vary itself from time to time and country to country, that is why we think that BMI exceeding the value of 30 is more important. If our BMI calculator for women shows that your BMI is more than 30, it means that your weight is in the Obesity category and you should consult your doctor.
