[World Athletics bans transgender women
from competing in female world ranking events]
[World Athletics has banned transgender
women from competing in the
female category at international events.
The governing body's president, Lord Coe,
said no transgender athlete who had gone
through male puberty would be permitted
to compete in female world ranking
competitions from 31 March.
A working group will be set up to conduct
further research into the
transgender eligibility guidelines.
"We're not saying no forever," he said.
Under previous rules, World Athletics
required transgender women to reduce
their amount of blood testosterone to
a maximum of 5nmol/L,
and stay under this threshold continuously
for a period of 12 months
before competing in the
female category.
Lord Coe added the decision was
"guided by the overarching principle which
is to protect the female category".
He noted that there are currently no
transgender athletes competing
internationally in the sport.]
