Normally the women should fall in the [b]15 to 25 percent[/b] range. Based on current information, a woman must have a minimum percent body fat of [b]15 - 17 percent [/b]for regular menstruation. In case woman's percent body fat is too low, her periods may stop and she may experience infertility.

There are several ways of measuring body fat, such as using skinfold calipers to find the amount of fat on the triceps or thighs. It is better to get the fat ratio through Body Mass Index measure.
