Dear Vandana, Thank you for the question

WHO has given different BMI (Body mass index) classifications to categories adults into different weight categories. BMI is a simple index of weight-for-height. It can be considered as a 2nd level indicator of overall health.
It can be calculated using a simple formula of BMI = Weight (kg) / Height (m²)
Following is the WHO BMI Classification
18.5 to 24.9 - Normal
Less than 18.5 - Underweight
25 to 29 - Overweight

The causes of underweight or unintended weight loss involve multiple factors like genetics, inadequate food intake, stress, hormonal imbalance, malabsorption or other underlying health condition.
