Greetings,
I am desiring to understand for a female at 5'6" what is the medical alert weight where a doctor would not desire a person to limit their activity because their weight is too low?
Thank you

Hello, Healthy03,
I can't give you a specific answer, because it depends on the person's build, their age, their overall health status and if there is an eating disorder. For a female who is 5' 6", in most cases a physician would consider 110 to be the bottom limit for usual function. Below that would give cause for alarm.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Good luck.
