Just answer a few questions about your child’s experience to build a personalized G.A.P. Then bring it to your next doctor’s appointment to help have a more productive conversation.

Growth
Based on your inputs, our percentile calculator will reveal how tall your child stands compared to their peers, based on data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) growth charts.

Assessment
We’ll provide a summary of where your child is on their pediatric growth hormone deficiency (GHD) journey, along with your responses regarding growth milestones, which you can share with your child’s doctor.
