Granted
The Board granted service connection for erectile dysfunction (ED) secondary to the Veteran's service-connected major depressive disorder with generalized anxiety disorder.
The deciding factor: The private medical opinion provided greater probative weight as it considered the Veteran's medical history and cited to relevant medical literature, concluding that the ED is at least as likely as not caused by his service-connected psychiatric disorders.
