VA Disability Rating for Female sexual arousal disorder (DC 7632)

Body system: Gynecological ConditionsRegulation: 38 CFR § 4.116DBQ: DBQ GYN Gynecological

Female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD) is a condition where a woman has persistent difficulty becoming physically aroused during sexual activity, despite having the desire. The VA doesn't assign percentage ratings for this condition under diagnostic code 7632. Instead, they review cases to see if you qualify for Special Monthly Compensation (SMC), which is additional tax-free money on top of any disability rating you might have for related conditions.

Rating levels

  • 0% — You have been diagnosed with female sexual arousal disorder, ongoing difficulty becoming or staying physically aroused during sexual activity. The regulation gives this condition a single schedular rating of 0%; there is no higher level. The condition is still service connected, and it is reviewed for special monthly compensation for loss of use of a creative organ under 38 CFR 3.350, which is where the compensation for it comes from.
