Just to clarify: Semenya can only be said to have "very high levels of testosterone" if it's presumed Semenya is a female, which Semenya is not.

Semenya has normal-high testosterone levels for the sex category to which Semenya belongs, which is male.

The position of IAAF/WA, which now has been upheld by both the CAS and the highest court in Switzerland, is that Semenya is a robustly healthy biological male athlete who differs from other robustly healthy male athletes only in the appearance of the external genitals.
