Im 5' 9" 108 pounds and 2.9 percent body fat. is that healthy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doctor can evaluate: A 5' 9" person who weighs only 108 pounds would look too thin, and actually is very slim. His doctor can evaluate to see if there are any medical issues to worry about, at such a light weight.
