Frequently Asked Questions about WHO Child Growth

Growth percentiles are calculated using the official World Health Organization (WHO) LMS method parameters (L=skewness, M=median, S=coefficient of variation) based on age in days and sex.

❓ What is considered a normal growth percentile for a child?

A percentile between the 15th and 85th percentiles is considered normal healthy growth. Percentiles below the 3rd or above the 97th percentile warrant clinical evaluation with Senior Paediatrician Dr. Zahoor Hussain Daraz.

❓ Where is Dr. Zahoor's clinic located in Srinagar?

Dr. Zahoor Hussain Daraz consults at Medicare Super Speciality Hospital, Karan Nagar, Srinagar, Jammu & Kashmir 190010. Helpline: +91 60067 00425.

Stunting is linear growth faltering where height is below WHO benchmarks for age. Early nutrition intervention with proteins, eggs, dairy, and Vitamin D before age 2-3 promotes catch-up growth.
