hard to say but i got raped.

Ok im 16 and about a year ago I had an encounter with a guy who tried to force his way into me(rape). A year ago is pretty long but recently I got PID'S(pelvic inflammatory disease).Im not sure how i could have gotten this because he only had contact to the outside of my vagina and got the head of his penis about 1/4 of a centimeter in. Could my pids just be because of bacteria around the cervix?

This is a medical question so you have to go to one of the medical doctors on the site. It is possible for bacteria to get into the vagina ( even with partial entry) and work its way up the fallopian tubes- but that can also happen in a number or ways. Although a year ago does seem to be an unlikely cause,I do not know if it is possible. Still- I am not a medical doctor- so please take this to Hunter Hansfield or one of the other great docs on the site and they can help you know what is the likely cause.
