BMI is a screening metric, not a diagnosis.
Why the review needs more context
Muscle mass, pregnancy, edema, age, ethnicity, medications, and metabolic conditions can change how BMI should be interpreted. HaleChapter uses the number as a starting point, not the whole answer.
Use the result as context, not a diagnosis.
Save the number, compare it with your goals, and bring it into the HaleChapter intake. A clinician-reviewed plan can account for medical history, medications, tolerability, and whether online weight-loss care is appropriate.
