Why is Mboma allowed to run in 200m?

Just watched the women's 200m final. Silver was won by Christine Mboma, who was going to compete in the 400m but wasn't allowed to because of DSD - but doesn't this mean she's biologically male??

Surely her coach knew this??

And so she's being training for the 200m and manages to get silver after a few weeks? How is this fair?

I saw this - www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/sport/2021/aug/02/masilingi-and-mboma-racing-against-olympic-elite-and-complex-cruelty - but this seems pretty biased...
