Frequently Asked Questions
How is waist-to-hip ratio calculated?
WHR = waist circumference / hip circumference. Measure waist at the narrowest point (above belly button) and hips at the widest point (around buttocks).
What do the risk categories mean?
Men: low risk (<0.90), moderate (0.90-0.99), high (1.00+). Women: low risk (<0.80), moderate (0.80-0.84), high (0.85+). Higher WHR indicates greater cardiovascular and diabetes risk.
How does this compare to BMI?
WHR measures fat distribution (apple vs pear shape) while BMI measures overall weight relative to height — clinicians often use them together for cardiovascular risk context. Defaults (80 cm waist, 95 cm hips = 0.84) read low risk for men and moderate for women.
Should I use cm or inches?
The ratio is the same regardless of unit. Use whichever measuring tape you have — the WHR value is unit-agnostic.
