The women’s category of Olympic sports will be limited to biological females from 2028.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) says eligibility will be determined by a “once-in-a-lifetime” sex test, which would prevent transgender women and those with differences in sexual development (DSD) who have gone through male puberty from competing.

It will take effect from the Los Angeles Olympics.

IOC president Kirsty Coventry said the policy, external was the result of a review “led by medical experts”.

“At the Olympic Games even the smallest margins can be the difference between victory and defeat,” she said.

“So it is absolutely clear that it would not be fair for biological males to compete in the female category. In addition, in some sports it would simply not be safe.”

The IOC said eligibility for the female category would be determined by a screening to detect the SRY gene – the sex-determining region Y gene – which is part of the Y chromosome and causes male characteristics to develop.

“The IOC considers that SRY gene screening via saliva, cheek swab or blood sample is unintrusive compared to other possible methods,” it said.

The IOC said athletes who fail the test would “continue to be included in all other classifications for which they qualify. For example, they are eligible for any male category, including in a designated male slot within any mixed category, and any open category, or in sports and events that do not classify athletes by sex.”
