My Renpho scale says my BMR is 1,300 is this probably correct?

Question

I have hypothyroid and on synthroid and PCOS so my metabolism is probably slower than average. Every time I use the scale it says my metabolic age is 32 and my BMR is 1,300 calories a day. I’m 26 fyi. Online it says average for my age is 1,800 so I’m wondering if my scale is correct

Answer

I can’t say if your scale is correct or not (never used one before) however, recommended daily calories based on age is just a general guideline. Everyone’s body composition is different and it depends if you’re trying to lose, gain or maintain weight. I’d probably go with the scale.

Answer

Sounds accurate with hypothyroidism and pcos. I’m 18 with no problems and my bmr is 1,700
