Pelvic Floor Dysfunction VA Disability Rating is rated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs under DC 7599 of 38 C.F.R. § 4.115a across 3 severity tiers (60% -- Absorbent materials changed >4x/day or appliance required / 40% -- Absorbent materials changed 2-4x/day / 20% -- Absorbent materials changed <2x/day). Service connection requires (1) a current diagnosis, (2) an in-service event, injury, or exposure, and (3) a medical nexus opinion linking the two under 38 C.F.R. § 3.303.
Pelvic floor dysfunction is rated based on resulting voiding dysfunction, fecal incontinence, or pain. Increasingly recognized in female veterans. May be secondary to MST or pregnancy complications during service.
Pelvic Floor Dysfunction (DC 7599) is evaluated under 38 C.F.R. § 4.115a using the genitourinary rating framework. Because it is rated by analogy to the general schedule, the 3 levels below describe the body-system criteria the VA applies — the percentage assigned to Pelvic Floor Dysfunction depends on the specific findings (range of motion, frequency, severity, or functional loss) documented at the C&P exam and in the medical record.
Rating criteria reference 38 C.F.R. Part 4 (Schedule for Rating Disabilities). This entry has not yet undergone editorial review against the live regulation text — consult the authoritative source directly before relying on the criteria shown.
