The Board has granted service connection for pelvic pain, finding that the Veteran's current condition is related to her active-duty service and resolving all reasonable doubt in her favor.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's pelvic pain is etiologically related to her active-duty service based on her complaints of pain since childbirth during service and subsequent treatment for similar symptoms post-service.
