The Board denied service connection for erectile dysfunction, finding no evidence of a causal relationship between the condition and the veteran's active duty service, including his participation in the Gulf War era.
The deciding factor: The VA medical opinion indicated that the appellant's current erectile dysfunction was less likely than not caused by his participation in a toxic exposure risk activity during his Gulf War service. Additionally, there is no credible evidence of symptoms of erectile dysfunction while on active duty and the reported history lacks credibility.
