I’m suggesting disqualifying women for abnormal testosterone levels without doing the same for men makes no logical sense. Either it’s a PED or it isn’t and if you’re going to limit a naturally occurring hormone of just one sex, then it’s not really about the hormone.
But they do, do the same for men. They test men’s testosterone. It’s part of the anti-doping protocol.
If someone is found with abnormal levels, it can be indicative of doping, and doping by increasing testosterone is quite common. Most people know it by the name of “steroids”
Are you proposing mandatory testosterone blockers for all Olympic athletes?

I see now! I misunderstood. Thank you for clarifying
