The Board granted service connection for metrorrhagia and denied service connection for a stomach condition, while also denying an increased rating for PTSD.
The deciding factor: The evidence was in approximate balance that the Veteran's metrorrhagia was incurred during active duty service, but there was no competent evidence of a current stomach condition or its etiology to service. The severity and frequency of psychiatric symptoms did not warrant a higher rating for PTSD.
