The International Olympic Committee (IOC)<\/a> will enact a new policy that will prohibit transgender female athletes from competing against biological women, according to multiple reports. The policy is reportedly set to cover those with differences of sex development (DSD).<\/p>\n

The IOC\u2019s current policy leaves it up to each individual sport\u2019s governing body to make policies governing transgender athletes. But as the IOC changed its leadership, The Times of London<\/a> reported on Monday that its policies are set to change as well.<\/p>\n

IOC president Kirsty Coventry called for “protecting” the women\u2019s category in June and there was “overwhelming support” from IOC members to do the same.<\/p>\n

“We understand that there’ll be differences depending on the sport \u2026 but it was very clear from the members that we have to protect the female category, first and foremost to ensure fairness,” Coventry said at the time.<\/p>\n

“But we need to do that with a scientific approach<\/a> and the inclusion of the international federations who have already done a lot of work in this area.”<\/p>\n

The upcoming policy switch is likely to be announced at the IOC session in February<\/a> before the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics in Italy and comes after a presentation from Dr. Jane Thornton, the IOC\u2019s medical and scientific director, last week, according to The Times.<\/p>\n

Thornton\u2019s presentation reportedly showed there were physical advantages in males, including those who took treatments to reduce testosterone levels. A source told the paper that the presentation was “very scientific” and unemotional.<\/p>\n

Athletes with DSD \u2013 those who were raised female but born with male traits \u2013 are set to be covered under the new policy, according to The Times. Olympic boxing<\/a> had two major controversies over athletes who previously failed gender tests.<\/p>\n

Algeria\u2019s Imane Khelif and Taiwan\u2019s Lin Yu-Ting won gold medals in their respective weight classes in the women\u2019s division despite major uproar. Khelif has insisted that they were female. Lin has not commented on the controversy since the Olympics were finished.<\/p>\n

World Boxing has since implemented mandatory sex testing for its competitors and Khelif will not be able to compete unless the test is completed.<\/p>\n
