Early menstruation is a common cause of short stature. My niece got her period at age 8 and is only 4'10". She's much shorter than everyone in her family.

+1. This is correct, early puberty, precocious or just early normal, can cause short height.

It’s not an age. It’s two years after menstruation begins.
