What is the WHR Calculator – Waist-Hip Ratio?

The WHR calculator (Waist-Hip Ratio) calculates the ratio of waist and hip circumferences. According to WHO, health risk increases in men with WHR > 0.90 and in women with WHR > 0.85. Abdominal obesity is a significant risk for heart and metabolic diseases.

The calculator is free and works in the browser without registration. This site offers over 200 calculators.

Calculation Principle

WHR = Waist circumference (cm) ÷ Hip circumference (cm)

Enter the data into the calculator fields – the result updates immediately. You can try different values to compare scenarios.

Practical Example

Woman, waist 78 cm, hip 96 cm → WHR = 78 ÷ 96 = 0.81 (normal). Risk starts at 0.85.

Tips and Considerations

  • Always measure at the same time (in the morning on an empty stomach) for comparability.
  • A decrease in waist size is a sign of reduced visceral fat, which is more important than external changes.
  • Aim for a WHR below 0.80 (women) and 0.85 (men) as indicators of a good health profile.
