The Board denied service connection for a gynecological disorder, finding no evidence of a disability during the appeal period and noting that there was no indication of chronic residuals associated with in-service genital warts. Post-service post-menopausal bleeding has not been linked to service.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence does not support a finding of a disability during the pendency of the appeal, as the Veteran's post-menopausal bleeding and genital warts were successfully treated without any residuals or functional impairment.
