Summary

Nutrition label

66% Informative

World Athletics has implemented strict measures for transgender athletes competing as women.

Athletes must reduce or maintain testosterone level to below 2.5 nanomoles per litre.

That has rendered Caster Semenya , the 800m 800m gold medallist at the 2012 and 2016 Olympics , ineligible.

Kirsty Coventry , the most decorated Olympian from Africa , has backed a blanket ban.
