When managing weight, knowing your BMI helps you:

- Maintain a healthy weight to support regular menstrual cycle8
What is BMI, and why does it matter when managing weight?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple measurement that compares your weight and height to indicate whether you are within a healthy range 5. While it does not measure body fat directly, BMI is a useful starting point for understanding weight-related health risks 5.
A higher BMI can be associated with risk of type 6 diabetes, heart conditions, liver disease, PCOS, and infertility 9, 10, 11, 12. Knowing your BMI can help you make informed decisions to support your long-term health.
BMI is a calculation of a body person’s weight (in kilograms) divided by the square of their height (in meters). For adults 20 and older, BMI categories are based on a person’s BMI regardless of age, sex, or race.13
