HealthyGrowth.com was developed by PFIZER to help parents with concerns about their child's growth. With basic answers from this site, parents can better work with their child's doctors to track a child's growth history and talk about what to do next.

• "Understanding Your Child's Growth" is for parents with concerns about the causes of slow growth in their children. It provides information and tools for parents to check their children's height, and urges them to bring their children's height records to their doctors to help with diagnosis.
• "Getting to a Diagnosis" helps parents learn about the diagnosis process, and what to expect during a visit to talk about their child's height.
• "The Role of the Pediatric Endocrinologist" helps parents prepare for a visit to see this expert when referred.
• "Considering Treatment for Your Child" helps parents of those children who are given growth hormone (GH) therapy. Here they will learn about the benefits, risks, and safety issues of GH therapy, and how important it is to stay on treatment.
