Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for polycystic ovary syndrome and left ankle strain due to inadequate VA opinions.
The deciding factor: The VA opinions relied upon by the AOJ were found insufficient, as they did not adequately address the Veteran's lay contentions of ongoing symptomatology.
