The Board has denied the Veteran's claims for service connection for a neck disorder and a gynecological disorder, finding that there is no current disability or evidence of in-service injury or disease related to these conditions.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence does not support a nexus between the current diagnoses and service, with the exception of cervical kyphosis which was less likely caused by military service.
