It's never outright stated, but one of the main characters was raped, which is likely to cause genital trauma.

It's not shown explicitly, but towards the end of the book, Elle tells Tessa that Charlie had abducted other children before her and murdered them. She also states that he had planned to do the same to her before she escaped.

The characters involved in this scene are not completely nude, but there is a scene where the main character and her boyfriend are shirtless I'm bed together. Another character also mentions people thinking about ‘[a man’s] nude body on top of [hers]’.

Although it's not outright stated, Elle is heavily implied to have PTSD. She is not violent towards others, but she does lash out at other people sometimes, which shows a common symptom of PTSD known as hyperarousal.
