Denied
The Board denied an earlier effective date for the award of service connection for erectile dysfunction and special monthly compensation based on loss of use of a creative organ, as there were no unadjudicated claims prior to April 12, 2023.
The deciding factor: There is no evidence of record that would support an earlier effective date for the awards of service connection for erectile dysfunction or SMC based on loss of use of a creative organ.
