BMI Calculator

Using a BMI Calculator to Improve Your Fertility

Being overweight or underweight can negatively affect your fertility. If you're having trouble conceiving, you might want to check your BMI, or body mass index. BMI is a measurement that considers both your height and weight to determine if you are at your healthiest levels.

Use the BMI calculator below to determine if you are underweight, overweight, or within the normal range. Be sure to choose whether you want to enter your height and weight in inches and pounds, or in centimeters and kilograms. Once you've entered your information, click calculate.

These are the normal ranges for BMI:

• A BMI less than 18.5 is considered to be underweight.
• A BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered to be normal.
• A BMI that is between 25 and 29.9 is considered to be overweight.
• A BMI over 30 is considered to be obese.
