If we are talking about the testosterone threshold for most Olympic sports: 1 year of testing underneath 10 nmol/L, or 288.5 ng/dL in order to compete in the women's division.

Normal testosterone levels for a male is between about 300 ng/dL and 1,000 ng/dL
Average female testosterone is between 15 and 75 ng/dL

Comparing those numbers, a trans athlete has to keep their testosterone level below a threshold that is 4x the high end of testosterone for women in order to compete.

A lot of people look at those testosterone numbers and think it is unfair.

If that's the concern, shouldn't people have an issue with born as female athletes who are naturally at that 288 range as well?
Or do they?
