How about he/she isn't allowed to wrestle at competitions. It doesn't matter why you're on TRT, if you're on TRT, you have an unfair advantage and shouldn't be allowed in.
If he/she really wants to wrestle competitively, he/she should try to get the rule changed for the boys division, otherwise you can't wrestle.
Your transgender "rights" shouldn't trump everyone else's right to compete in a level playing field. He/she isn't special and if his/her circumstances means he/she can't wrestle, then he/she can't wrestle.
It really sucks that transgendered boys should have to choose between competing in athletics and getting hormone therapy, with its enormous proven health benefits, but I don't see any way around it. With current testing regimes, it seems unworkable.
On the other hand, I think we can all agree that allowing him to dope and forcing him to compete against girls is the worst possible decision, regardless of whether his Mother, Texas, or both are to blame.
