weight, genetics, race
also it has to do with the chemicals they put in food these days
i started mine 3 days before my 11th birthday (im 25) and i had a friend who started hers when she was 8yrs old

girls are getting their periods earlier and earlier these days due to the chemicals that are put in our foods. For example, the growth hormones that are found in milk. There has been a lot of research on this subject.

it used to depend on when your mom got it. now, since meat(in america especially) is filled with growth hormones, humans who've been eating it since early childhood go into puberty early and more and more girls start their periods before fifth grade.

Feel blessed my step daughter got her period when she was 8 and she came and told me about instead of her mother. Her mother got it very early too its probably in the genes
