â„šī¸About WHO Growth Standards

This calculator uses WHO (World Health Organization) growth standards, which are the international benchmark for monitoring children's growth.

Percentiles compare your child to other children of the same age and gender:

  • 50th percentile = Median (average)
  • Below 3rd or above 97th = Needs attention
  • 15th-85th = Normal healthy range

Note: Growth charts are screening tools, not diagnostic. Always consult a pediatrician for concerns about your child's growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a growth percentile?
A percentile shows how your child compares to others of the same age and gender. 50th percentile means average. 75th percentile means taller/heavier than 75% of children that age.
When should I be concerned about growth?
Consult a pediatrician if your child is below 3rd or above 97th percentile, or if there's a sudden change in growth pattern. Consistent growth along a percentile line is more important than the exact number.
