Questions

Is this medical advice?
No. It is arithmetic on the numbers you supplied, with the formula named, and it says so on every result. Nothing here diagnoses or prescribes.
Where do the numbers in the formula come from?
From published equations, each named on the result, and from whatever you typed. Nothing is looked up: there is no drug database, no national schedule and no reference range invented to fill a gap. Where a tool has no answer it says so with the reason.
Is what I type uploaded anywhere?
No. This page carries the whole tool as WebAssembly and runs it on your own device. Nothing you type is sent anywhere, which for a health calculator is the point rather than a feature.
Is there a version that is not a web page?
Yes. The same tools are built as a desktop application from the same code, with a save dialog instead of a download and no network code at all.
