What Is My Life Expectancy?

This calculator gives a rough, non-medical life expectancy estimate based on your age, sex, smoking status, and activity level.

How the estimate is built

The tool starts from general population averages by age and sex, then adjusts for smoking status and how active you are. These factors are among the most studied influences on longevity, so they give a reasonable rough picture. The result is a single estimated age, not a prediction of any individual's actual lifespan.

Important limitations

This is an educational estimate and not medical advice, and it cannot account for your family history, specific health conditions, diet, or other personal factors. Real life expectancy depends on far more variables than four inputs can capture. Use the number only as a general reference point, and talk with a healthcare professional for guidance about your own health.

How to use it

  1. Enter your current age.
  2. Select your sex.
  3. Select your smoking status of never, current, or former.
  4. Select your activity level to see the estimated life expectancy.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a medical prediction?

No, it is an educational estimate based on broad averages and a few factors. It is not medical advice and should not be used for health or financial decisions.

Why does smoking change the result so much?

Smoking is strongly linked in research to reduced life expectancy, while quitting recovers some of that gap over time. The tool reflects this with an adjustment for current and former smokers.

Can I improve my estimate?

Factors like staying active and not smoking are associated with longer life in population studies. For real guidance tailored to you, speak with a doctor.
