Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for an initial compensable rating for erectile dysfunction and increased special monthly compensation (SMC) based on loss of use of a creative organ.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show the required deformity or analogous impairment for a compensable rating, and the law does not provide for a higher rate of SMC for loss of use of a creative organ.
