What is BMI Calculator?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight. The formula is BMI = weight(kg) / height(m)². This calculator supports both metric (kg/cm) and imperial (lbs/ft+in) units.
BMI provides a rough indicator of whether a person is underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. It is not a diagnostic tool — consult a healthcare professional for health assessments.
