About WHO Growth Tracker

WHO Growth Tracker is a simple web tool designed to help parents, caregivers, and healthcare professionals visualize child growth data using the World Health Organization (WHO) Child Growth Standards.

The tool allows users to enter a child's date of birth, weight, and length or height and see how the measurements compare to simplified reference growth curves.

Purpose of the tool

The main goal of this website is to make growth charts easier to understand and visualize.

Growth monitoring is an important part of child health assessment. The WHO Child Growth Standards provide internationally recognized reference values describing how children should grow under optimal conditions.

By presenting these values in an interactive chart, this tool helps users better understand how a child's measurement compares to reference curves.

WHO Child Growth Standards

The charts used by this website are based on the WHO Child Growth Standards developed from the WHO Multicentre Growth Reference Study (MGRS).

These standards describe growth patterns of children from birth to five years of age raised in optimal environmental conditions.
