Interpretation

  • These are population averages; individual variation is wide and normal.
  • Height, bone structure, puberty timing, genetics, and ethnicity all influence weight.
  • BMI-for-age percentile is a better screening tool than weight alone.

When to Consult a Pediatrician

  • Weight < 5th or > 95th percentile for age/sex.
  • Rapid crossing of percentile lines.
  • Signs of disordered eating, excessive fatigue, or delayed puberty.
