Puberty in girl age 9

My daughter looks like she's starting some breast development and getting a few spots.
The pharmacist said it's early but normal range and no need to go to the GP about it. She gave her a gentle face wash for acne.
She said she could start her period in a few months but then again she might not and that there's nothing I can do about it.
Wondering what other people's experiences of when their daughters periods started after first showing signs of puberty.
What causes it to start early? She's a bit picky but eats fruit and veg and three meals a day and isn't overweight.
It seems so young.
I was 14 when I got my period.
Thanks!
