BMI 25.2 - is it unhealthy when TTC?

Question

My BMI is 25.2 which is on the overweight side. My menstrual cycle is regular. Do i need to prioritise loosing weight now to get pregnant? Does this BMI negatively impacts my chances?

Answer

Don't stress about it 😊 just focus on staying healthy and exercising when you can (instead of focusing on your weight). BMI is not a very good indicator on an individual level anyway, so as long as you're keeping healthy, it shouldn't have too much of an impact.

Answer

That’s fine. You are barely overweight. Healthy weight can actually range much farther than the BMI allows.
