From the article:
"One of nine children born to country folk in Ticrapo, an Andean village at an altitude of 7,400 feet in Peru's poorest province, Medina is believed to be the youngest case of precocious puberty in history, Sandoval said."

precocious puberty. girls usuallyy enter puberty at age 12, but there have been instances where girls have entered puberty at at 9 or 10 too.
