yeah! i think the ideal % for women 20+ is 21 - 24% so ur little on the slimmer side but still healthy! you fall under "athletic"
:) so if ur still trying to gain some weight, thats good!. its nice to see ppl who care more about their healthy than stick thin self image!. get to around 117-125lbs and ul be perfect!! :) take care xWww@Answer-Health@Com

At 15, you will have a slightly higher body fat content than women of 21+!. This is completely normal!.
The best way to check if you are overweight is to check your BMI (body mass index)
Be careful!. Do not let others make you feel fat, if you are not! There is enough pressure on young people today without making them feel under pressure to loose weight they do not need to!.
If you feel healthy, and your doctor has not recommended that you loose weight, then the chances are, that you are fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Online websites cannot accurately calculate your body fat percentage, but 19!.8% body fat would be considered fit/lean for a female!.
To measure your body fat properly you need to use callipers or go to a facility that offers hydrostatic weighing/DXEA!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
