Hormone treatment for transmen and transwomen cause a partial reduction of advantage over 1 year, and increased reduction of advantage over 3 years. While this doesn’t fully level the playing field, it’s a very significant result that’s ignored entirely by this paper.

I couldn’t find any studies that looked at a treatment period of over 3 years.

maybe the best solution is to have 3rd (or even more if needed) category in sports, male, female, trans-persons?

another polarity would be to put everyone in one category

every one can choose who to compete against based their preferences, not sure if level field can be reached as each body react different to substances
