Denied

The Board denied service connection for the veteran's gynecological conditions, including changes to menstrual cycle, endometriosis, uterine polyps, and PCOS. The evidence did not show that these conditions began during active service or were related to an in-service injury or disease.

The deciding factor: The competent medical evidence of record does not establish that the Veteran's gynecological conditions are at least as likely as not related to her military service.
