The Veteran's service connection claims for a gynecological disability, loss of sex drive, and bilateral pes planus are all denied. The Board found that the evidence did not support service connection for these conditions. However, the Veteran's claim for bilateral pes planus is remanded due to inadequate examination.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence did not establish a direct relationship between the claimed disabilities and service.
