The Board denied service connection for low testosterone and remanded the claim for further development regarding erectile dysfunction.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of a current disability for which service connection could be granted, as low testosterone is considered a laboratory finding and not a disability in itself. An examination was deemed necessary for the erectile dysfunction claim due to insufficient evidence regarding its etiology.
