Transwomen in sports, and testosterone levels

It seems a little silly to make a thread just about this (sorry!) but I came across this very interesting study earlier. It seems to tie in with feminist concerns around transgender males in sports - and in situations where women are vulnerable - and I haven't seen it linked before Smile Apologies if it has been!
Only a quarter of transgender women taking a regimen of spironolactone and estrogens were able to lower testosterone levels within the usual female physiologic range. Another quarter could not achieve female levels but remained below the male range virtually all of the time, while one quarter was unable to achieve any significant suppression.

Hi all, it's pretty clear that we have picked up a derailer. We're on the case, but we'll leave the posts so that the thread makes some sort of sense. No need for further reports on this one, thanks!
