Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection of erectile dysfunction secondary to a service-connected disability due to an inadequate VA medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The June 2023 examiner's opinion was found inadequate as it did not address whether the Veteran's ED was caused or aggravated by his service-connected disabilities, including unspecified depressive disorder with PTSD and obstructive sleep apnea.
