IOC Moves Towards Blanket Ban On Trans Women In Female Categories | GRAVITAS

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) is reportedly moving closer to introducing a blanket ban on transgender women competing in female categories across all sports.

IOC President Kirsty Coventry, elected as the first female president, set up a working group on women’s sport protection. Initial scientific findings suggest athletes born male may retain physiological advantages even after testosterone reduction.

While no official decisions have been taken, the ban could be implemented before the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics, though it’s unlikely to affect February 2026 Winter Games. The IOC continues discussions on sex eligibility and DSD athletes, aiming to reach a global consensus.
