Lede vs Controversies section
If I had the time, I'd move the entire last paragraph of the lede to the Controversies section, rename the section, merge in the additional material already in the section, then just summarize it with a sentence or two to the lede.
Anyone have other ideas? --

I don't know. I've got to say, the reporting on this I've looked at is really dire, and I'm starting to think none of it can be used as sourcing for a biography.
This is probably the best (DSD is an actual term in current use, at least, even if it's in no way specific), but it still exhibits a prurient interest in her genitals.

I agree. As a first step, I'm going to move the much better-written material from the lede. --

Testosterone injections
Wouldn't the testosterone injections disqualify her and warrant her medals being stripped to begin with? Is there more to this? The sources linked reveal little.
