How this is worked out

Ovulation usually happens about 14 days before your next period. The fertile window runs from about five days before ovulation to the day after.

Tips

  • The NHS uses BMI as a screening tool, but waist measurement also matters.
  • Estimates like BMR and body fat can vary by 5–10% from lab measurements.
  • Track trends over weeks rather than day-to-day changes.

Frequently asked questions

Ovulation usually happens about 14 days before your next period. The fertile window runs from about five days before ovulation to the day after.

Is this medical advice?

No. These tools give general estimates. For medical advice, speak to your GP, pharmacist or NHS 111.

Can I use these for children?

No. Children's BMI and health measures use age- and sex-specific charts. Use the NHS healthy weight calculator for children.

Why use stone and pounds?

Many people in the UK still think in stone and pounds, so we accept those units and show metric too.

This calculator gives an estimate for general information. It isn't financial, tax, legal or medical advice. Check official figures on GOV.UK or NHS.uk, or speak to a qualified adviser.
