They tried to eliminate Semenya, Wambui etc. so hard they forgot to introduce the same rule for men all the bald guys beware, lol.

IAAF competes with FIFA for the title of the most corrupt & hateful trash dump of the sports world. Testosterone research has existed for decades, so why now? To make it even more hypocrite they didn't prohibit other hormones from " when administered exogenously" list to ban everyone with naturally "abnormal" (in their opinion) levels.
