1600 bmr; 1700 calorie diet??

Angel4ever44

So I was wondering how does myfitnesspal calculate their recommendations. My bmr is around 1600 cal and it gave me a 1700 cal recommendation. I know you're not suppose to eat under your bmr- and I avoid doing so, but can someone inform me as to how it calculates it? 5'7" female. Thank you!
