It is important to draw parents' attention to the issue of properly monitoring children's growth.



A pathology that you need to know how to detect

This is a real challenge for all children. More than 70% of growth delays are of constitutional or genetic origin, and for other children, delayed growth can be associated with a pathology that must be detected and identified as early as possible.



A necessity to monitor regularly

In partnership with the Grandir association and the French Pediatric Society (SFP), Novo Nordisk intends to raise awareness among parents of the need to regularly monitor the growth of their children, both girls and boys.



An indicator of their state of health

Indeed, growth represents an important indicator of their state of health and well-being and certain signs should alert you to possible growth disorders and lead you to consult a doctor.



From birth to puberty

Growth is a process that begins in the uterus and continues until puberty. Growth rate is not constant from birth to puberty. Created more than 40 years ago, the Grandir association informs, reassures and supports parents of children with growth problems, before, during and after treatment.
